W ATCHES,
To Buyers Of Watches
Everywhere.

ry,UE create, part Of the jewellers OF the United
i States keep Waltham Watches and cordially
recommend them 60 their customers, N Otwithstand-
ing the fact that less profit is made these watch
es than any others generally sold by the trade.
The reason of tins Is, that the reputation of the
" altham Watch renders il IN easy sale, and the
result is, that although the dealer does not make
rs much money on each individual watch as he
may on the sale Of other watches, he is still the
gamer through larger and livelicr sales. There
are some, however among the trade, who do no;
give the Waltham Watch that hearty support
which il deserves. This portion Of the trade fan.
cv there l. more money 10 be made by dealing In
watches about which the public are ignorant, and
in which there - less competition, and are con-
tent To make an occasional sale Of such watches
nj n large profit II Il this class Of dealers who
when asked about Waltham watches. use that
kind OF language which leads the customer dnal-
" to buy just such a watch a. Is the most profit
able for the dealer TO sell.
For the information OF persons about 20 buy
watch, aud who may be uniayorably affected by
the representations OF those Unfricndy % our
watches, we call attention 10 the following sugges
lions:
1t waltham, the Company have made and sold
about 900 900 watches. In every town and village
of the country some wearer Of Walham Watch
may be found Let the party about to bny ask
this owner Of an American Watch this question:
HAS YOUR WATCH GIVEN YOU sATIsFAC-
TION?
We are not afraid 10 advise those wishingto buy
a watch 20 guide themselves by the answer Be
ing satisfied ~ 30 the quality Of the watch the
buycr IN. only 20 satisfy himself that the Wal
than Watches are THE CHEAPEST as well rs
the best. On this head we have few words To
say:
It's well known fact in manufacturing, that
the greater the number of articles manufactured
by one establishments the smaller VIII bc the cost
OF each individual article. Keeping this IN view,
our policy has always been 10 sell our products at
the lowest possible price IN order 10 secure large
sales, and thus enable IA To manufacture watches
AZ "A minimum cost. WE BELlEh N SMALL
PROFITS AND \ LARGE BUSINESS This
policy We have successfully carried out, and the
result j., that to-day we manufacture twice as ma.
ny watches all the other factories in the United
state nut together. WE CAN, THEREFORE,, Az
FORD To SELL CHEhrTR THAN THEY 30, AID &C
rUAi.Li DO SELL IWENrl-fINE PER CENr CHEAP
ER THAN THEY DO, QUALITY FOR QUALITY.
We would further remark that in increasing our
product We have constantly improved It's OF AL
tTY AND ITS VARIETY We have had the re-
fII-al uf nearly all inventions intended To improve
timcpiere-, and have adopted all those only,
which have proved 10 be really valuable. We
have retained ia our employment every head Of a
department We have ever had, whose services
were OF any Importance 10 the Company and our
present corp. Of designers and master mechanics
cannot be eJuallcd IN this or any other country.
In addition t. this make gold and silver cases,
not only for our own movements. but tor those of
other factories, being the only establishment
that turns out watches complete in every respect.
As these Watches are flr sale by the trade gen.
orally throughout the United states, and at re-
tail profit made most reasonable BY competition,
the Company invariably decline orders OF retail
