Essay: Just & Son, London Leonard Just was specialized in making watches for the Chinese market. He worked in London between 1790 and 1825. Upon his death, the business passed to his son, and carried on as "Just & Son", Middleton Square. Like other English watchmakers trading with China, some of their watches were made by Swiss watchmakers from the Val-de-Travers area, of which Fleurier is the biggest village.
