NO jar can interfere with the harmony of its. working and no sudden shock can damage its machinery. Every piece is made and finished by machinery'itself famous for its novelty, a<* well as for its effectiveness , and is therefore prop erly made. The watch i what all mechanism should he—ACCURATE,SIMPLE,STRONG AND ECONOM ICAL. Except some high grades, too costly for gen eral use. foreign watches are enieflv made by women and boys. Such watches are composed of several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and require constant repairs to keep them in any kind of order. All persons who haTe carried -ancres" *'le pines" and "Engash Patent LeTers," are perfectly well aware of the truth of this statement. At the beginning of our enterprise more than ten year* ago, :t was our first object to make a thorough ly good low priced watch for the million, to take the place of these foreign impositions: the refuse of for eign factories, which were entirely unsaleable at home and perfectly worthless everywhere. How well we have accomplished this, may be un derstood from the fact that after so many Tears of public trial, we now make MORE THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES, and that no others have ever given such universal satisfaction. While this department of our business is continued With increased facilities for perfect work, we are at present engaged in the man ufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO CHRONOMETRY. unequaied Lv any thing hitherto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by anything ma*te in the world For this purpose we have the amplest facilities. We have erected an ad dition to our main building expressly for this branch of our business, and have filled it with the best work men in our service. New machines and appliances have been constructed which perforin their work with consummate delicacy and exactness. The choicest and most approved materials only are used, and we challenge comparison between this grade of OUT work and tho finest imported chronometers. YVe do not pretend to sell our watches for its- s, vn than toreign watches, but we do assert without fear of con tradiction that for the SAMI WOXIT our product is m eomparatively superior. All our wa: -t.es, or what ever grade, are fully warranted, and this warrantee is good at all times against us or our agents in all parts of the world.
