The extensive use of these watches for the last
fifteen years BY Railway Conductors, Engineers,
and Expressmen, the most exactiDg OF watch
wearers, has thoroughly demonstrated the
strength, steadiness, durability and accuracy OF
the Waltham Watch. To satisfy that class In
all these respects is to decide the question as to
the real value Of these tiue-keepers.
More than SOC, 600 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets of the
neople-a proof and guarantee Of their superior
ity over all others.
The su perior organization and great extent OF
the Company's Works at Waltham, enables them
to nroduce watches at price which renders COM
petition futile, and those who buy any other
watch merely pay from rs to so per cent. more
for their watches than is necessary.
These time-pieces combine every improvement
that long experience has proved OF real pracu-
cal use Having had the refusal OF nearly every
practical invention in matchmaking originating
in this country in Europe, only those were
adopted which severe testing by the most skill
full artisans in our works, and long use on the
part of the public. demonstrated 70 DC essentiai
to correct and enduring tine-keeping.
Amspg the many Improvements we would par

ing had the refusal OF all other contrlvances,
adopted Fogg's patent pinion as being the best
and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair-springs, now uni
versaily admitted by Watchmakers to be the
best, are used in all grades OF Waltham Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proef caps,
protecting the movement from dust, and lessen
ing the necessity of the frequent cleaning neces-
sary in other watches.
Our new patent stem-winder, or keyless watch
Is already decided success, and great improve
ment on any stem winding watch in the Amerl-
lean market, and by far the cheapest watch OF ITS
quality now offered to the American public. To
those living portions of the United States
where watchmak-rs do not abound, watches with
the aforementioned improvements which tend
to ensure accuracy, cleanliness. durability and
convenience must prove invaluable.
