wALTHAM WATCHES,

The extensive use Of these Watches for the last ff
teen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and
Expressmen-the most exacting of watch wearers-
has thoroughly demonstrated the strength, steadf-
ness, durability, and accuracy of the Waltham
Watch To satisfy that class in all these respects
TO decide the question to the real value Of these
time-keepers.
More than $50 900 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets Of the peo
plea proof and a guarantee of their superiority
over all others. .-
The superior organization and great extent OF the
Company Works at Walthsm, enable them to pro-
duce watches at price which renders competition
futile, and those who buy any other watch merely
pay from Is to 80 Per cent. more for their watches
than is necessary.
We are now selling waltham Watches at less
prices in greenbacks than the gold prices before the
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 practical
use. Having had the refusal OF nearly every inven

in Europe, only those were finally adopted which
severe testing by the most skllful artisans in our
works, and long use the part of the public, de-
monstrated to be essential to correct and enduring
time keeping.
Among the many improvements we would particu-
Iarize:
The invention aud use Of q centre pinion OF pecu
liar construction prevent damage to the train by
the breakage Of main springs is original with the
American Watch Company, who, having had the
fusal of all other contrivances, adopted Fogg's
Patent pinion as being the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair springs, now uniyer-
sally admitted by wstchmakers to be the best, are
used in all grades Of waltham Watches.
All vi latham Watches have dust proof caps, pro-
tecting the movement from dust and lessenng the
necessity Of the frequent cleaning necessary in other
watches.
Our new patent stem winder, or keyless watch, fs
already decided success and a great improvement
on any stem winding watch in the American market,
and by far the cheapest watch Of its quality now
offered to the public To those living in portions of
the United States there watchmakers do not abound
watches with the above mentioned improy ements
which tend to insure accuracy, cleanliness, dura-
bility and convenience, must prove invaluable.
Every watch guaranteed by the Company.
