This result has been brought about by a stiict ap plication of mechanical science to the construction ' of the watch from its very inception, lendeiing it, when fiuished MATHEMATICALLY CORRECT, in all proportions, and necessarily as perfect a time keeper as*it is possible to make. The Company have tested their Watches, in \ many instances, by actual daily noting, and the re- j suit of this test has been tbat they have exhibited a rste aqual in regularity to the best marine chro nometer. N. B.— We have just introduced a NEW STYLE OF WATCH ' elaborately finished, and thinner than any we have heretofore produced, with several improvements calculated to secure the greatest accuracy of perfor- j mance, and to prevent the usual accidents and de- j rangements to which foreign watches are liable.
