During this time he created at least 1,395 watches, and his customers ranged from aristocrats such as Baron to the Revolutionary advocate Merlin de Thionville. In 1800, in the Directoire era, he sent 7400 francs worth of merchandise to at Saint Petersburg, possibly including a clock now in the Hermitage Museum. Bourret's interests were not limited to clocks. He served as a juror of the Revolutionary Tribunal in 1794, and in 1802 began to operate a ballroom in the Tivoli de la Folie Boutin gardens. Later in that same year, he handed over management to his wife so that he could travel to Martinique to run a business in tropical produces. However, shortly after his arrival, he died at Rivière-Salée. (en)
