The past twelve months at the Walthan Watch
Factory nave been the busiest in the Company's
history. Several wholly new stem-wnding Watches
have been produced, and great improvements have
been effected in the manufacture OF al variety of
their standard watches, until now they Include
every size in both key and stem-wnding, that can
be desred of every quality and every price At the
same time new inventions in machinery, and other
large economies, have cheapened the cost. 80 that
at present it is not much TO claim that the wal
than Watches are the best and cheapest watches in
the worli. These claims are, In fact, almost every
where admitted. In this country It is d matter OF
fact that hardly any line American Watches are sold
but those OF the Waltham make, while orders are
now regularly received from England, Australia, and
the British Possessions generally, and foreign coun-
tries are abandoning the hand made productions of
switzerland and England, and eagerly ADOPTING
American machine made walthan watches in their
place.
Buyers OF silver watches should be careful to OBJ
serve the stamp OF the Company on the case, las wei
as sn the movement, as the Waltham Watch move
ments are frequently put into cases which are inte
rier both in quality OF metal and Workmanship.
