AMERICAN WATCHC0MPAuY

THIS COMPANY BEG LEAVE TO IN
L form the public that they commenced
operations in 1850, and their factory now
covers four acres of ground, and has cost
more than a million of dollars and employs
over 100 operatives. They produce $4,000
Watches year. and make and sell no. less
than one half of all the watches sold III the
United States.
The difference between their mann 'acture
and the European. is briefly this European
Watches are made almost entirely By hGnd
and the result is of necessity a lack of that
uniformity. which is indispensable to CO rect
time keeping. Both The eye and the hand Of
the most sili,iful operative must vary. But
it is fact that, except watches Of higher
grade European watches ARE the product Of
the cheapest labor of Switzerland and the
result is the worthless Azores, Lepines and
so called Patent Leyers-whch soon cost
more in attempted repairs, than their orig
inal price. Common woi kmen, boys and
women, buy the rough separate parts Of these
watches irt IN various factories. polish and
put them together, and take them to the
nearest watch merchant; who stamps and en-
gfaves them with any name OF brand that
may be ordered.
