To Buyers of Watches Everywhere.

The greater part OF the jewellers OF the
United states keep Waltham Watches, and
cordially recOmm end them to their custom.
crs, 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 it an easy HaIc, and tho
resul; IS that, although the dealer does not
make as mach money on each individual
watch as las may on the safe OF other
watches, lie is Still the gamer through lar
ger and liveiicr sales There are come how
ever among the trade, WHO do not give the
Naltham Watch the hearty support which
1t deserves. THtS portion OF the trade fancy
fntTt. is more money to Oe made by dealing
rant, .ndin which there Ii less mpettttOn,
ard are content to make an occasional sale
of such watches at a lnr&e profit: 1t IS this
class of dealers who, when asked about
WaIthan Watches, uSs that kind OF Ian
guu3:e watch leads the customer to buy just
such n watch as Is the most profitable for the
dealer to sell.
FOR the Information Of persons about TO
buy a watch. aud who may be unfavorably
-fi9cIed by the representations of those un.
friendly 10 our watches, we call attention to
the following suggestions:
since the manufacture OF watches was in
itiateI at WalthGn, the Company have
T;ade and sold about 400, 900 watches. In
every town and village OF the country some
weaIer OF q Waltham Watch may be found.
Let the party ABOUT to buy ask this owner of
an Americail Watch this question:
HAS YOUE WATCH GIVEN YOU SAT-
I9FACFIOE?
we are not afraid to advise those Wishing
10 buy watch to guide themselves by the
answer. Being satisfied as to the quality OF
the watch, inc buyerhas nov only to satisfy
himself that the Waltham Watches are The
OHEAPE!ST as well as the best. On this
head we have few words TO say:
ii IL a Well known fact In manufacturing,
thut the greater the number OF articles
manufactured by one establishment, the
smaller will be the cost OF each individual
has always reen to sell our products at the
lowest possible price in order to secure large
sales and thus enable us 10 manufacture
IiEVE in SMALL PROFITS AND A
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
ted States put together. We can, therefore.
AFFORD 10 sell Cheaper than they do and actually
ITO sell 1ECeHtV fire per cent Cheaper than they
Cto quality for qualify.
We would further remark that IN increas-
ing our production we have constantly i'm
proved It's QUALITY AND ITS VARIETY.
" g have had the refusal OF nearly all lnven-
tions intended to improve tIme-p IE ceS, and
have adopted all those, and those only,
which have proved to be really valuable.
We have retained in our employment every
head OF department We nave ever had
whose services were OF any Importance to
the Company, and our present corps OF de-
siSnerS and master mechanics cannOt be
eQualed in this or any other country. In
addition to this we make gold and silver
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
gene :ally throughout the United states, aud
at retail profit made: most reasonable by
cline orders OF a retail character.
