Proofs of the Superior Quality
of the
American Watch
made at
wALTHAM, MASS.

The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more dura-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market. They simpler in
structure, and therefore stronger, and less likely
TO be injured than the majority of foreign watch
es, which composed OF from l25 to 500 pieces,
while In an oldEnglish watch there more than
705 parts. How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let
ter:
PENN. RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT,
Altoona, Pa, Is Dec, 1866.
GENTLEMBN-The watches manufactured by
you have been in on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches part of our equipment There are
now some three hundred of them carried our
line, and We consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, ] have great satisfaction
in saying your watches give us less trouble, and
have worn aud do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware, we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture of ac-
knowledged good reputation; but a class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as yours.
In these statements am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over q series of years. Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent
American Watch Co., Waltham.
We make now five different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy & Co., I, latham, Mass.
Waltham Watch Company, Waltbam, Mass.
p. s. Bartlett, e-- WaItham, Mass.
Wm- Eliery, Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
Watch Company, are warranted by the American
Watch Company to be of the best material, on
the most approved principle, and to possess every
requisite for reliable time keeper Every deaieS
