CARD FROM THE
American Watch COMFY
WALTHAM, MASS.

This Company beg leave 70 inform the pub
lie that that they commenced operations in
1850, and their factory now covers four acres
of ground, and has cost more than million
dollars. and employs over 700 operatives
They produce $4,000 Watches a year, and
make and sell not less than ore-half of all
the watches sold in the United States.
The difference between their manufacture
and the European, is briefly this: European
Watches are made almost entirely by hand
and the result is of necessity lack OF that
uniformity, which is indispensable to correct
! time. keeping. Both the eye and the hand Of
the most skillful operative must vary. But it
is fact that. except watches of the higher
/ grades, European watches are the product OF
the cheapest labor of Switzerland. and the re-
suit is the worthless Ancres, Lepines and so
called Patent Leyers-which soon cost more
| in attempted repairs, than their original price
| Common workmen. boys and women. buy
the rough separate parts of these watches
from various factories. polish and put them
together, and take tkem to the nearest watch
with amy name or brand that may be ordered.
How American Watches are Made.
The American Waltham Watch is made by
no such uncertain process-and by no such
incompetent workmen. All the COmpany's
operations, from the reception of the raw ma
terials to the completion of the Watch. are
L.
skillful and competent direction Bat the
great distinguishing feature of their Watches
is the fact that their several parts are all made
by the finest the most perfect and delicate
machinery ever brought to the aid of human
industry. Every one one of the more than
hundred parts of every watch is made by a
machine-that inallibly reproduces every
succeeding part with the most unvarying &C.
curacy. 1t was only necessary to make one
perfect watch of any particular style and then
to adjust the hundred machines necessary TO
reproduce every part of that vaieI. aud Il
follows that every succeeding watch must be
| like it.
The Company respectfully submit their
watches on their merits only. They claim
to make
A Better Article for the Money
by their improved mechanical processes than
can be made under the old-fashioned handi-
craft system. They manufacture watches of
every grade, from good, low priced, and
substantial article, in solid silver hunting ca
ses. TO the finest chronometer and also la
dies watches in plain gold or the finest en-
ameled and jeweled cases but the indispen-
sable requisite of all their watches is that
they shall be GOOD TIMEKEEPERS. 1t
should be remembered that, except their sin
gle lowest grade named Home Watch Com
pany, Boston," ALL WATCHES made by
them
Are Fully Warranted
