VNEIE NEW

The past twelve months al the waltham Watch
Factory have been the busiest in the Company's
history. Several wholly new stem winding watches
have b eli produced, and great improvements have
been effected In the manufacture OF all variety of
their standard watches, until now they include
every size in both key and stem-wndlng, that can
be desired, OF every quality and every price At the
same time new Inventions in machinery, anu other
large economies, have cheapened the cost so that
at present it is not too much to claim that the wal
than Watches arc the best and cheapest watches in
the world. These claims are, In fact, almost every
where admitted. In this country 1t is a matter Of
fact that hardly any 1ne American watches are sold
but those OF the Waltham make, while orders are
now regularly received from England Australia aud
the British Possessions generally and foreign coun-
tries are abandoning the hand made productions of
switzerland and England, and eagerly adopting
American machine made Waltham watches In their
place.
Buyers Of silver watches should be careful to oh
serve the stamp of the Company the case,as wei
as sn the movement, as the watham Watch move
ments are frequently put into cases which are infe.
rier both in quality Of metal and Workmanship.
