WAL7HAM
WATCHES,

The extensive Use of these watches for the last
Gfteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers
and Expressmen, the most exactng of watch
wearers, has thoroughly demonstrated the strength
steadiness, durability and accuracy Of the Watham
Watch. TO satisfy that class in all these respects,
is to beside the que son to the real value of these
time keepers.
More than 100000 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets Of the peo-
plea proof and guarantee Of their superiority
over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of
the Company Works at Waltham, enables them
to produce watches at price which renders com.
petition futile, and those who buy any other watch
| merely pay from 25 to 30 per cent. more for their
watches than is necessary
The time pieces combine every Improvement that
| a long experience has proved of real practical use.
Having had the refusal of nearly every invention
to matchmaking originating in this country or in
Europe, only those finally adopted which
we're testing by the most skillfull artisans in our
works, and long the part of the public, dem
on-trated to be essential 10 correct and enduring
time keeping.
Among the many Improvements we would par
ticularize
The invention and use of a centre pinion of pecu-
liar construction 10 prevent damage to the train by
the bfeakage OF main-sPrngs, Is original with the
American Watch Company, who having had the
patent pinion as being the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered halr-spnngss, now uni
yersally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best,
are used in all grades of Waltham Watches
All Watham Watches have dust.proof caps, pro-
tectng the movement from dnst, and lessenng the
necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in
other watches.
Our new patent sten-wnder keyle-s watch
is already decided success and a great improve
on any stem winding watch in the American mar.
Aet and by far the cheapest watch OF ITS quality
now offered TO the public. To those living in por-
where Watclma
| not abound, watches with the above mentioned i'm
proyements which tend to insure accuracy, clean
liness durability and convenience, must prove in
valuable.
