Almanach des Horlogers was a watch industry publication active from 1886 through 1913.

The almanac was published annually starting in 1886 by Imprimerie E. Grossniklaus of Saint-Imier. Each edition featured historic events, the year's calendar, advice for watchmakers, and various special-interest commentary for this audience. The publisher for 1887 was Charles Gros junior.

The publication moved to Geneva in 1895 and Paris in 1901, when the title was changed to Almanach des Horlogers et Bijoutiers. It was renamed to Almanach de l'Horlogerie et de la Bijouterie in 1904. Charles Gros remained the director throughout this time.

Archives of Almanach des Horlogers from the collection of the Musée International d'Horlogerie from 1886 through 1913 are available in The Watch Library.
