**Aristo** is a German watch manufacturer.

The //Aristo Uhren- and Uhrgehäusefabrik// (Aristo watches and watch cases manufacturing) was founded in [[Pforzheim]] in [[1907]] by the watchmaker Julius Epple. In [[1998]] Helmut Epple, the grandson of the founder, appointed the watch designer Vollmer as his successor. In [[2005]] Vollmer fusioned the development of Aristo and his own family business, the [[1922]] established watchband manufacture Ernst Vollmer, and founded the **Aristo Vollmer GmbH**.

Today Aristo offers unusually low-priced watches of the type [[pilot's watch]], [[dive watch]] and sports watch, as well as the motorsport series //Aristo Timing//. The watch range "Messerschmitt" reminds with its models of the legendary airplane brand of the same name. The range "ME 262" is dedicated to the, at that time, best military aircraft in the world. The [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_262|Messerschmitt Me 262]] was the first such airplane with jet propulsion.

With the [[self-winding]] movement Aristomatic SW 200, Aristo becomes independent with regard to [[movement]] manufacturing. This calibre is produced at the [[ebauche movement]] manufacturer [[Sellita]] Watch S.A. in [[La Chaux-de-Fonds]] and represents an improved version of the [[ETA 2824-2]].
