Mario Boiocchi, Paul Picot's principal, was concerned that values of craftsmanship and precision were falling by the wayside during the quartz revolution of the 1970's. He bought a small factory bearing the name Paul Picot.
Headquartered in the Noirmont, in the Jura region of Switzerland, Paul Picot is now a revered name in the world of luxury watches. Paul Picot has remained true to its values and contributed significantly to the Swiss watch renaissance. The Paul Picot Technicum is considered a world class masterpiece.
