The Jürgensen brand name has a long tradition in watch making going back to the mid 18th century. The original founder of the firm Jürgen Jürgensen worked in Copenhagen around 1759. Later his son Urban (1776-1830) and his son Jules both became renowned watch makers in their own right and practiced in their native Denmark as well as Switzerland.
