acw WATCHES ARE MADE

In SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, a large proportion of metal is
needed only to stiffen and hold the engrav-
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
James Boss Patent Gold Watch Gases this
WASTE is saved, and soLIpITY and
STRENGTH increased by a simple process,
at one-half the cost. A plate of SOLID
GOLD is soldered ON each side of plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this the cases, backs
centers, bezels, ETC., are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
iough to admit of all kinds of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use without removing the gold. This Is
the only case made under this process. Each
ease IS accompanied Nth valid guarantee
signed by the manufacturers ,oarranting II to
xsar 20 years. 10000 of these Gases
now carried in the United States and
Canada. Largest and Oldest Factory.
Established 1854. Ask your Jewelsr.
