Tho extensive use of these watches for the last een
wears by Railway Conductors Engineers and Express
men, the most exacing of wach-wearers has thorough
~ demonstrated the strength, steadiness, durability and
accuracy of the ,Waltam Watch. To satisfy that class
in al these respects is TO decide the question as to The
real value of these time.keepers.
More than 900, 900 of these watches now speak
ing for themselves in the pockets of the peope-a proof
and guarantee OF their superiority all others. .
The superior organization and great extent of I've
Company's Works at Waltham, enables them TO produ
watches a price which renders competition futilo and
those who buy any other watch merely pay from 25 10
30 per cent for their watches than is necessary
These time.pieces combine every improvement that
long experience has proved of real practical Iav
ing had the refusal of nearly every invention in watch
making originating In tts country or In Europe, only
those were finally adopted which testing by the
most skull artisans in works. and long use on the
part of tho public demonstrated to be essential 10
| rect and enduring timekeeping.
| Among the many Improvements would paricu-
| larize:
The invention and use Of centre pinon of peculiar
construction, TO prevent damage 10 The train by the
breakage of man:sprngs original with the American
Watch Company who, having had the refusal Of all
other conrvances, adopted Fogg's patent pinlon as
being the best and faultlcss.
Hardened and tempered hair-sprngs now universally
admitted Ry Warhmakers to be the best, used in all
grades of Waltham Watches.
All Walham Watches have dust-proof caps, protect
ling the movement fromdust and lessening thenecess
ty of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches
Our new patent stem-winder or keyless watch is al
ready decided success, and great improvement on
any s!em-winding watch In the American market, and
by far cheapest watch of lis quality offered to the
public To those living In portions Of the United States
where watchmakers do not abound, watches with tho
above mentioned Improvements which tend 10 ensure
accuracy cleanliness durability and convenience must
j prove Invaluable.
