The German watch manufacturer Aristo was founded in
1907 by watchmaker Julius Epple in Pforzheim, Germany, a city known for its
watchmaking and jewelry industry. The company originally produced watches
and watch cases under the name Julius Epple KG, but began using the brand name
"Aristo" in the mid-1920s and registered it in 1936. By 1992,
Aristo had produced millions of wristwatches, but the brand was revived in 1998
by Hansjörg Vollmer. Today, Aristo watches are known for their quality and
craftsmanship, and combine German-designed cases and bracelets with
Swiss-imported automatic or mechanical movements.
