To Buyers Of Watches Everywhere.

The greater part of the jewellers OF tho
United States keep Waltham Watches, and
cordially recOmm end them to their CUSTOM
ers, Notwithstanding the fact that less profit
is made on these watches than on any 9TH
ers generally sold by the trade. The reason
OF this is, that the reputation or the Wal
than Watch renders 1t an easy sale, and the
result is, that, although the dealer does not
make as much money on each individ ual
watch as he may on the sale OF other
watches. lie is Sill the gamer through lar
ger and liveller sales. There are sOme how
over among the trade, who do not give tho
WaItham Watch the hearty support which
1t deserves. This portion of the trade fancy
there Is more money TO be made by dealing
in watches about which tho public are ignO-
rant, and III which there is less competition,
and are content to make an occasional sale
OF such watches Mt large profit. II Is this
class of dealers who, when asked about
Waltham Watches, use that kind OF lam
guaHe which leads the customer to buy just
such a watch rs Is the most profitable for the
dealer to sell.
For the Information OF persons aNOut to
buy witch, and who may be unfaVoraoly
affected by the representations of those un-
friendly to our watches, we call atten ton to
the following suggestions: .,.,.-
since the manufacture of watches was In
iCiated NJ WRltham, the Company have
made and sold about 400, 900 watches. In
every town and village OF the country some
Wcaier OF Waltham Watch may be found.
Let the party about to buy ask this owner of
an American Watch this question:
HAS YOUR WATCH GIVEN YOU SAT-
ISF ACTION?
We are not afraid TO advise those wishing
to buy a watch TO guide themselves by the
answer Being satisfied as to the quality of
the watch, the buyerhas now only tosalisfy
himself that the Waltham Watches are I'll f
Oh EA PEST aS well as the best. ON this
head we have a few words to say:
1t Is a well known fact in manufacturing,
hot 1Nn nj r.
manufactured by one establishment, the
smaller will be the cost of each individual
article. Keeping this IN view, our policy
has always cen to sell our products at the
| lowest possible price in order to secure large
sales. and thus enable us to manufacture
| LTkVE IN SMALL PROFITS AND A
! LARG r; BUSH ES5. This policy we have
| successfully carried ont. ana the result Is.
| that to-day we IN anufaCture tWica rs many
watches as all the other factories IN tho Uni
ted States pnt together. We can, MercfoTe,
UJIOrti 10 sell Cheaper than they do ana dCtWUNH
| 40 sell IT"cntY:tire per cent cheaper than meg
| CO, qItuLUY for 4udLtty.
| we would further remark that In increaS-
| ing our production we have constantly i'm
proved its QUALITY AND ITS VARIETY.
We have had the refusal of nearly all lnVen.
| lions intended to improve time-pl' ce>. and
| have adopted all those, and those only,
winch have proved to be really valuable.
We have retained i'll our employment every
head OF n department we have ever had
whose services were or amy Importance to
the Company, and our present corps OF de-
SieMerS and master mechanics cannot be
| eQuaIed i'll this or any other country. In
| addition TO this wo make gold and silver
| cases, not only for our own movements, but
| for those of other factories, ours being the
only establishment that turns out watches
complete in every respect.
| AS these Watches are for sale by the trade
generally throughout the United states, and
ut retail profit made: most reasonable by
competition, the Company invariably de-
| cline orders of n retail character.
