WALTHAM
w WATCHES
To Buyers of Watches Everywhere

The greater part OF the jewellers OF the
United states keep Waltham Watches, and
cordially recommend 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 tho
result is, that, although the dealer does not
make as much money on each individual
watch as he may on the sale of other
watches, he is still the gamer through lar
ger aud livelier sales There are some how
ever among the trade, who do not give the
Wallham Watch the hearty support which
II deserves. This portion OF the trade fancy
there is moro money to be made by dealing
in watches about which the public are igno-
rant, nd in which there rs less competition,
aud are content to make an occasional sale
OF such watches at a larGa profit. 1t is this
class of dealers who, when asked about
Waltham Watches, use that kind OF Ian
guage watch leads the customer to buy just

dealer to SELL
For the Information of persons about to
buy watch, and who may be unfaVorably
Elected 10y the repreSen tatiOnS of those I'M
friendly to our watches, we call attention to
the following suggestions:

Let the party about to buy ask this owner OF
an American Watch this question
Has YOUR WATCH GIVEN YOU SAT
ISF ACTION?
We arc not afraid to advise those Wishing
to buy watch to guide themselves by the
answer. Being atI>tied as to the quality of
the watch. the buyer has now only tOSalisfy
himself that the WaItham Watches are TIL E
CHEAPEST as well as the best. On this
head we have a few words to say:
1t is u well known fact in manufacturing,
that the greater the number nun OF articles
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. aud thus enable US 10 manufacture

ted States put together. We can, therefore,
AFFORD TO sell Cheaper than they do and actually
ito sell ItYemty.tiUe per cent Cheaper than they

We would further remark that In 1ncreas-

tions Intended to improve time pi ces. aud
which have proved to be really valuable.
We have retained in our employment every
head OF department we have ever had
the Company, and our present CORPS OF de-
sIsners and master mechanics caonot be
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 for 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 q retail character.
