To Buyers of Watches Everywhere.

Tho greater part OF the jewellers OF the
United States Keep Walthnm Watches, and
cordially recommend Them to their custom.
e.s, Notwithstanding tho fact that less profit
Is made on these watches than on any OLh-
CTS generally sold by the trade. The reason
OF this Is, that The reputation or the Wall
than Watch renders ii an easy sale, and the
result is, that, although the dealer does not
make as much money on each individual
watch as he may on tho sRlo OF other
watches, he is still the gamer through lar
ger AMI livcIicr sales. There GIo some. how
WalthaEu Watch tho hearty support which
II deserves. Tnis portion of the trade fancy
there is more money 10 bo made by dealing
rant, and i'll which there ls less competition,
and are content to mako an occasional sale
of such watches ut a large profit. 1t is this
Waltham Watches, use that kind OF lam
guage which leads the customer to buy just
such q watch as Is the most profitable for the
dealer to sell.
For the Information of persons about to
affected by the representations OF those UNI
friendly to our watches, we call attention to
the following suggestions:
Since the manufacture OF watches was In
itinted At Waltnam, the Company have
made and sold about 400, 900 watches. In
weafer Of a W0ltham 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-
ISFACrIOE?
We arc not afraid to advise those wishing
to buy 4 Watcu 10 Sulue themselves ny Ine
answer. Being satisfied as to the quality of
the watch, the buyer has now only to satisfy
Himself that the Wnltham Watches are Il II +
CHEAPEST as we'll as the best. On this
head we have few words to say:
1t Is a well known fact in manufacturing,
that the greater the number of articles
manufactured by one establishment, the
smaller will be the cost OF each individual
article. Keeping this in view, our policy
has always ueen TO sell our products at the
lowest possible price in order 10 secure large
sales, and thus enable us to manufacture
watches at a minimum cost. WE BE-
LARGE BUSINESS. This policy we have
successfully carried out, anu the result is,
that to-day we manufacture twice as many
watches as all the other factories in the Uni
GCord 10 sell Cheaper than they do. and ACTUALLY
do sell JhCenLy.J1V per ce7It Cheaper than they
do quality for, quality.
We would further remark that iniincrea6-
pr6v T It's oTALT ~ AND ST1 RS VAKfETY.
W @ have had the refusal OF nearly all tnven-
lions intended TO improve tIme-pieceS, and
have adopted all those, and those only,
We have retained in our employment every
head OF q department we have ever had
whose services were OF any importance to
the Company, and our present corps OF de-
eQualed in this or any other country. In
addition to this we 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 tor sale by the trade
generally throughout the United States, and
at retail profit made: most reasonable by
competition, the Company invariably de-
cline orders of a retail character.
