How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led TO similar i'm
proyements in the making Of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of q
silver case was made Of several pieces Of
metal soldered together, requiring a great
amount of cutting and soldering. which
softened the metal and gave il the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
emit for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering softens il.
To test the superiority Of the keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one Of or weight,
press It squarely in the center when closed,
and It viii not give, while case Of same
weight of any other make viii give enough
TO break the crystal The keystone Silver
Watch Case Is made only with silver cap
and gold Joints.
