WALTHAM
WATCHES.
To Buyers Of Watches
Everywhere.

gUNHE greater part Of the jewellers OF the United
l. States keep waltham Watches, and cordially
recommend them TO their customers notwithstand'
ing the fact that lcss profits made on these watch
90 than any others generally sold by the trade.
The reason of this Is, that the reputation OF the
Waltham Watch renders Il an easy sale, and the
result Ia that although the dealer does not make
as much money on each Individual watch Ms he
may ON the sale of other watches, he Is still the
gamer through larger and lvelier sales. There
are some, however, among the trade, who do not
give the Waltham Watch that hearty support
which IL deserves This portion OF the trade nan
CIV there IL more money 10 be made by dealing in
watches about which the public are ignorant, and
I'm which there Is less competition, and are con-
ten, to make an occasional sale Of such watches
nj large profit 1, il this class Of dealers who
when asked about waltham watches, use that
kind OF language which leads the customer final.
" to buy lust such watch as Is the most profit
able for the dealer to sell
For the information of persons about to buy n
watch, and who may be unfavorably affected by
the reprcscntations Of those unfriendly 30 our
watches, we call attention TO the following sugges-
tons:
nj waitham the Company have made and sold
about 900 90 watches. In every town and village
Of the country some wearer Of Waliham Watch
may be found lie, the party about TO buy ask
this owner OF an American Watch this question
HAS YOUR WATCH GIVEN you sATIsFAC.
TIoSi
We are not afraid TO advise those wishing 10 buy
n watch 10 guide themselves by the answer he
ing satisfied "a 10 the quality OF the watch, the
huyer has only to satisfy himself that the W al
than watches are THE CHEAPEST IA well az
the best On this head We have few words to
say:
nisawell known fact In manufacturing, that
the greater the number OF articles manufactured
by one establishment the smaller VIII he the cost
of each individual article. Keeping this IN view,
our policy has always been to sell our products nj
the lowest possible price in order to secure large
sales, aud thus enable us 10 manufacture watches
M minimum cost. WE BELIEVE IN SMALL
PROFITS AND LARGE BUSINESS. This
policy we have successfully carried out and the
result Is, that to-day We manufacture twice as ma.
nv watches all the other factories In The United
States put together. We CAN, THEREFORE,, Az
roRp To SILL CHEAPER THAN THEY DO, AND &C
rrAILY "a SELL TWENTY-FIVE rER CENT CHEAP.
ER THAN THEY Do, QUALITY FOR QUALITY
We would further remark that In increasing our
product We have constantly improved its QUAIL
Try AND IT'S VARIETY. We have had the re-
fussl Of nearly all inventions Intended tn improve
,imc.pieoes, aud have adopted all those only,
which have proved 90 be really valuable. We
have retained in our employment every head Of a
department We have ever had, whose services
were OF any importance To the Company, and our
present corps Of designers and master mechanics
cannot he cquallcd In this or any other country
In addition Ia this 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 gen
orally Throughout, the United states, aud AZ re-
tall profit made most reasonable by competition,
the Company invariably decline orders of a retail
character.
