yKIALTHAM WATCHES.
The extensive use or these WATCHES for the
last fifteen years by railway conductors, cngi-
neers, and exprcssmep, the most exacting OF
watch-wearers has thoroughly demonstrated the
strength, steaincss, durability, and accuracy, Of
THE WALTHAm WATCH
To satisfy that class IN all thcse respects Is TO
decide the question as to the real value OF these
time keepers. ...-.
More than $50, 900 Of these WATCHES are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets OF INA
peoples proof and q guarantee OF their SUPERB
GRITTY over all others.
The superior organization and great extent OF
the Compsny's Works ut Waltham enable them To
produce watches at price which renders comDe-
titfon futile, and those who buy any other watch
merely pay from twenty to fifty per cent. more
for their watches than Is necessary.
We are now selling WALTHAM WATCHES at
less prices In greenbacks than the gold prices be-
fore the war. There is no other manufacture OF
any kind In the United States of which this can be
said.
These time-pieces combine every improvement
that long experience has proved OF real practl-
cal use. Having had the refusal OF nearly every
invention in matchmaking originating In this
country or In Europe, only those were finally
adopted which severe testing by the most skilful
artisans In our works, and long use on the part OF
the public demonstrated TO be essential TO correct
and enduring time-keeping.
Among the many Improvements we would par
ticularize:
The invention and use OF ccntre-piDlon oil pc
euliar constructions, 10 prevent damage TO the
train by tho breakage Of main springs, is original
with the American Watch Company, who, haS-
ing had the refusal OF all other contrivanSes,
adopted Rogg's Patent Pinion as being the best
and Eaultless.
Hardened aud tempered hair-springs, now uni
versalIy admitted by watcbmakers TO be the best,
are used In all grades OF waltham Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps,
protecting the movement from dust and lessenins
the necessity OF the frequent cleaning necessary
| In other watches.
: Our new patent STEM-WINDER, or KEY
LESS WATCH, is already decided success and
great Improvement on any stem winding watch
in the American market, and by far the cheapest
watch Of It's quality now offered TO the public To
those living In portions Of the United States where
| wstchmakers do not abound, watches with she
aforementioned improvements, which tendtotin-
sure accuracy, cleanliness, durability, and con-
yenience. must prove invaluable. q.
