REASON WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH.
Made at WaItham, Mass,
Is THE BEST.

1t is made on the best principles. Its frame
is composed of SOLID PLATES, NO jar can,
interfere with the harmony Of its working and
no sudden shock can damage its machinery.
Every piece is made and finished by machinery
(itself famous for its novelty, as well as for
its effectivenesS) and is therefore properly
made. The watch is what all mechanism
should be-ACCURATE, SIMPLE, STRONG
AND ECONOMICAL. Except some high
grades, too costly for general use, foreign
watches are chiefly made by women and boys.
Such watches are composed ofseveral hundred
pieces, screwed and riveted together, and re-
quire constant repairs to keep them in any
kind of order. All persons who have carried
'ancres," "lepines" and "English Patent
Levers" are perfectly well aware of the truth
of this statement.
At the beginning of our enterprise, moro
than ten years ago, it was our first object to
make thoroughly good low-priced watch for
the million, to take the place of these foreign
impositions-the refuse OF foreign factories
which were entirely unsaleable at home and
perfectly worthless everywhere.
How well we have accomplished this may
be understood from the fact, that after so
many years Of public trial we now make MORE
THAN HALF0F ALL FHE WATCHES SOLD
IN THE UNITED STATES, and that no others
have ever given such universal satisfaction.
While this department of our business is con-
timed wish frcreased facilities for perfect
work, we are at present engaged in the man.
ufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST
GRADE KNOWN TO CHR0NOMETRY, un-
eoualled by anything hitherto made by our
selves, and unsurpassed by anything made in
the world. For this purpose we have the
amplest facilities. Webave erected an addition
to our main bHildings expressly for this branch
OF our business, and have filed it with the
best workmen in onr service. New machines
and appliances hare been constructed, which
perform their work with consumate delicacy
and eXactness. The choicest and most ap-
proved materials only are used and we chal-
lenge comparison between this grade of our
work and the finest imported chronometers.
We do not pretend to sell our watches fO1
less money than foreign watches, but we do
assert without fear of contradiction that foE
the same money cur product is incomparablJ
superior. All our watches, of whatever grade
are fully warranted and his warrantee is gooa
at all times against US or our agents in aIt
parts of the world. .....--
CAUTION.-The public are cautioned 10
buy only of respectable dealers. All persons
selling counterfeits will be prosecuted.
