RICAN WATCH,
MADE AT WALTHAM, MASS,
is THE BEST
1t is made on the best principle. 1t 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 GtselffamOus for its novelty
as well for its effectiveness,) and is therefore
properly made The watch is what all mechanism
should be-ACCURATE, SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECO
NoMIcAL. Except some high grades, too costly for
general use, foreign watches are chiefly made by
women and boys. Such watches composed of
several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted to-
gether, and require constant repairs to keep them
in any kind of order. All persons who have car
ried isancres," :slepines" and ''English Patent
Levers" are perfectly well aware of the truth of
this statement.
At the beginning of our enterprise more than
ten years ago, it our first object to make a
thoroughly good low priced watch for the million,
to take the place of these foreign mpostions, the
refuse of foreign factories which were entirely un-
saleable at home and perfectly worthless every
where
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 HALF OF
ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES,
and that no others have ever given such universal
satisfaction. While this department of ouc busi-
ness is continued with increased facilities for per-
feet work, we are at present engaged IN the man.
ufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST GRADE
KNOWN TO CHRoNOMETRY, unequaled by anything
hitherto made by ourselves and unsurpassed by
anything made in the world. For this purpose
we have the amplest facilities. We have erected
an addition to our main building expressly for
this branch of our business and have filled it wi tn
the best workmen in our service. New machines
and appliances have been constructed, which per-
form their work with consummate deicacy and
exactness. The choicest and most approved ma
terals only are used and we challenge comparison
between this grade of our work and the finest i'm
ported chronometefs. We do not pretend to sell
our watches for LESS MONEY than foreign watches
but we do assert, without fear of contradiction,
that for the SAME xoNEY our product is incompa-
bly, superior. All our watches, of whatever grade,
are fully warranted, and this warrantee is good
at all times against agents in all parts of
the world.
CAUTIoN.-The public cautioned to buy only
of respectable dealers. All persons selling coun-
terfeits will be prosecuted.
