WATCHES.

UIALTIIAM WATCHES.
The extensive use Of thcse watches for the
last fifteen years by Railway Conductors Mi
gineers, and Expressmen, The most oxactlng OF
watch wearers. has thoroughly demonstrated
the strength, steadiness, durability and accurA-
cy of the WalLhsm Watch. TO satisfy that
class in all those respects is to decide the 1ucs-
ton as to the real value Of these timn.Eecpers.
More than 10000 Of thcso watches are
now speaking for themselves in the pockets OF
tho peoples proof and q guarantee OF their
superiority over all othors.
The supero. organization and great oXtent OF
tho Company's Works Mt Waltham, enable
them to produce watches NJ price which rcT
ders com petition futile, and those who buy any
other watch, merely pay from % to 30 per cent
moro for their watches than is necessary.
We are now selling Walthsm Watches At
loss prices in greenbacks thsn the gold prices
before the war There is no other manufacture
Of any kind in tic United Sta.os Of which this
can be said.
These time.pieccs combine every improve
ment that q long experience has proved of real
practical use. Having had the refusal Of near
ly every invention in matchmaking originating
in this country or in Europe, only those were
finally adopted which severe testing by the
most skllful artisans in our works, and long
use on the part of tho public, demonstrated to
be essential 10 correct ard enduring ti!ao-kccp-
ing.
Among the many Improvements we would
particularize:
The invention and use Of II centro- pinion o:
peculiar construction, to prevent damage 10
the train by the breakago Of main springs, is
original with the American Watch Company,
who, having had tho refusal of all other con-
trivanccs, adopted Fogg's Patcat pinion as be-
ing the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair springs now
universally admitted bywatchmaker 10 the best,
are used in all grades of Waltz am Watches.
All Walthsm Watches have dust-proof caps,
protecting the movement from dust and lessen
ing the necessity of the frequent cleaning, ne
cessary in other watches.
Our new patent stem Wind r, or keyless watch,
is already decided success and b great i'm
provemeRt on any winding watch in the
American market, and by far the cheapest
watch of its quality now offered to the public.
To those living in all portions of the US where
watchmskers do not abound, watches with tho
above mentioned improvements which tend TO
insure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and
convenience, must prove invaluable.
Every watch guaranteed By tho Company.
