==History of J.Auricoste==
French watch manufacturer.

Auricoste was founded in 1854 as a watch company by Emile Thomas. Thomas was a specialist in the field of marine chronometers. In 1889, Joseph Auricoste took over the company from Emile Thomas. From then on, the company was renamed Auricoste; Joseph Auricoste's shop was located on Rue de la Boétie 10, Paris.
At the World Exhibition in Paris in 1889 and 1900, the company won a gold medal.

After the Second World Cup, his son Pierre Auricoste took over the company. New challenges have been taken up. In collaboration with Patek Philippe, the first timekeeping networks (electro-mechanical) were installed for the French Navy warships, e.g. aircraft carriers Arromanches, La Fayette, Foch, and Clemenceau, and finally the new Charles de Gaulle, the successor of the Clemenceau.

The chronographs "Type 20" and "Type 52" were developed, which were also kept by Dodane in the program. The 300-metre water-tight "Spirotechnique" was delivered to the Navy as a diving watch. The chronographs are equipped with ETA automatic movements and Dubois Dépraz modules.

Auricoste is still active today and has been the offiziel "Horloger de la Marine de L'Etat", de l'Observatoire du Bureau des Longitudes, du Service Géographique de l'Armée et du Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers since 1854. In addition to various outlets in Paris, Auricoste is represented in various other locations in France and the French Caribbean.
