Jules Jürgensen (1808-1877) He was born in 1808 in Le Locle as the son of the watchmaker Urban Jürgensen (grandson of Jacques-Frédéric Houriet). In Copenhagen, Jürgensen was trained in his family's watchmaking business and also studied mathematics, astronomy and foreign languages. Shortly after the death of his maternal grandfather, he went to Switzerland and opened a watch factory in Le Locle in 1834. Jürgensen attracted great attention worldwide with the manufacture of precision watches. Source: E. Fallet, "La mesure du temps en mer et les horlogers suisses", 1995, pp. 79-81.
