A FEW REASONS WHY THE AMERICAN WATCH IS THE BEST. It is made on the best principle, while the for eign watch is generally made on no principle at all. The foreign watch is mostly made by women and hoys, EV HAV3, While their labor a cheap, their work is dear at any price. Such watches are made without plan, and sold without guarantee. They sre nregular in construction, and quite as irrpgular in movement. They are designed only to sell, and the buyer is the party most thoroughly sold. Those who have kept "ancres," "lepines,"aod "Swiss le vers," in professed repair for a few years will ap picciatc the truth of our statement. THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH. Instead of being made of several hundred little pieces, screwed together, the body of the American Watch is formed of SOLID PLATES. No jar in tertercs with the harmony of its working, and no sudden shock can throw its machinery out of gear. In riding or any business pursuit, rt is all held to gether as firmly us a single piece of inetal. It is just what all machinery should be— -Ist. ACCURATE. 2d. SIMPLE. 3i. STRONG. 4!b. ECONOMICAL. We not only secure CHEAPNESS by our system, but QUALITY. We do not pretend that our Watch can be bought for less money than the foreign maie iehtves, but that for its reai value it is sold for one half the price. OUR SOLDIER'S WATCH (named Wm. Eilery) is what its name indicates—Solid, Substantial, and always Reliable—warranted to stand any amount of Marching, Riding or fighting. OUR NEXT HIGHER QUALITY OF WATCH (named P. S. Bartlett) is similar in size and genera! appearance, but has more jewels, and a more elab orate finish. OUR LADIES' WATCH, recently brought out, is put up in a great variety of patterns, many of ihem ot rare beauty and workmanship, i'( quite •mail, but warranted to keep time. OUR YOUNG GENTLEMAN'S WATCH ja neat, not large, and just the thing for the pocket oi Voung America. THE PROOF of the merits ot our Watch may be found in the fact that we now employ over sev er. hundred workmen in our factories, and that we are still unable to supply the constantly increasing demand. * OUR THREE QUARTER PLATE WATCH is thinner and lightei than the others we have descri bed. Its fine chronometer balance is delicately ad justed to correct the variation caused by changes of temperature. These watches are the fruits of the latest experiments in chronornetry, and are made by our best workmen, in a separate depart ment of our factory. For the finest time-keeping qualities they challenge comparison with the best works of the most English and Swiso ma kers. BOBBINS & APPLETON, Agents lor the American Watch Company, IS2 BROADWAY, N.
