WAITHAM
WATCHES.

The extensive use of these watches for the last
ffteen years By Railway Conductors, Engineers
and Expressmen, the most exacting of watch
wearers, has thoroughly demonstrated the strength
steadiness, durability and accuracy of the Watham
Watch. Te satisfy that class in all these respects,
to beside the question the real value of these
time keepers.
speaking for themselves In the pockets of the peo-
ple-a proof and guarantee of their superiority
over all others.
The superior organization and great extent OF
the Company's 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 % to SO 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 were finally adopted which Sc.
we're testing by the most skillful artisans in our
works, and long on the part of the public, dem
onstrated to be essential to correct and enduring
tme-keepng.
Among the many improvements we would par
ticularize:
The invention and use OF centre-pinion of pecu-
liar construction to prevent damage to the train by
the breakage OF nain-sPrings, is original with the
American Watch Company, who having had the
re61ual OF all otnef contrlvanceS, adopted F0ggs
patent pini0n as being the best and faultess.
Hardened and tempered halrsprings, now uni
versally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best,
are used in all grades of Waltham Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, pro
tecting the movement from dust, and lessening the
necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in
other watches.
Our new patent stem-winder, or keyless watch
10 already q decided success, and great improve
on any stem-wlnding watch in the American mar
ket and by far the cheapest watch of its quality
now offered to the public. To those living in por-
tons of the United States where watchmakers do
not abound, watches with tho above mentioned i'm
provements which tend to insure accuracy, clean
Illness, durability and convenience, must prove in
valuable.

journment of the council. In that let
