Facts Every American Should Know
'T'HE war is over. We did
what we set out to do. ' But
victory left some things to be
accounted for. And this is one
of them.
The Government said to the
Waltham Watch Company: "We
need your skill and creative
genius in this national, enter
prise." Waltham came to atten
tion, saluted, and went to work.
Let us imagine for a moment
what happened. Here were over
five thousand people, and a great
organization suddenly turned
aside from supplying the normal
demand for Waltham products
to the abnormal demands of war
and its accessories.
What this entailed cannot be
told here, but the genius of Wal
tham is American genius and
deeds speak louder than words.
AMERICAN ships and the largo
accretions to oiir glorious navy
could not go to sea without accurate,
delicately adjusted chronometers and
thoy were supplied by Waltham.
American aeroplanes could not climb
into the skies without clocks that would
N withstand the vibrations of powerful
motors and abnormal extremes of tem-
Eerature demanding the most exact
orological adjustments and they wero
Bupplied by Waltham.
American motor transports and auto
mobiles required speedometers and
sturdy shock and stress resisting time
pieces and they were supplied by
Waltham.
Our beloved soldiers, who fought and
died for us, needed watches, and thou
sands of Walthoms went into battle
and kept record of Time that shall ever
be memorial.
Indeed, "Waltham" in Paris supplied
servico 'behind the lines' for repairs,
etc, and was officially recognized as
Watch headquarters for the A. E. F.
And this is not all
SOMEWHERE in the United States
Uricle Sam approves the gifts that
his sons of genius create for the glory
of his name.
It is night. A few hooded and power
ful electric lights search the darkness
to reveal a Hugo gun, around which
are gathered a few men who servo this
giant of strength.
A sharp word of command 1 A flamo
of fire! A concussion that rocks the
earth! The roar of a shell! A few tense,
numbered sccondsl Then, out there on
the far horizon, a burst of fire miles
, away an explosion timed to infinitesi
mal moments by Waltham.
This, the triumph of Waltham genius
a time-fuse that splits a second into a
hundred parts that far exceeds in
instantaneous accuracy all other time
fuses hitherto invented that sends
each shell to its destination governed
by Waltham's inventive genius hidden
in tho apex of the shell.
Imagine this device, light enough
and of such delicate accuracy to explode
the charge at a hundredth of a second,
fired in a shell with a vfclociiyof 2,700
feet per second, and leaving the gun's
rifled barrel at 25,000 revolutions per
minute.
Talk of "position" time-keeping
hore is a whirligig of motion a "posi
tion" test that subdues competitive
argument. And imagine a timepiece
strong and durable enough .to endure a
blow, a strain, a stress of two pounds
to each grain of its w.eight. A terrific
reaction for the honor of America
when the gun is fired.
A
Waltham Time-Fuse
NEVER in the world's history has
there been such miraculous time
keeping, such performance, such
absolute reliability under such abnormal
conditions. As Americans, wo have a
right to be proud of Waltham genius.
But if it had not been for nearly
three-quarters of a century filled with
work behind the Waltham time-fuse, it
would hot have been years in front of
all others. Pre-eminence is its own1
reward.
Years of concentrated development'
on an infinitesimal unit ofttimes out
of sight in the works of the watch
have added renown to the name of
Walthatn.
The Waltham Watch, upon whose
universal time-keeping the sun never
sets, is but an older brother of this
marvelous time-keeper in the shell.
TF7 E have told you these facts becausf?
VV they supply some reasons why
Waltham Watches are not plenti
ful. We are concentrating every re-'
6ource of our organization to meet a
national demand which is a tribute to
Waltham excellence.
We know that if your dealer cannot
supply you immediately with your
choice of a Waltham Watch he will bo
able to supply you before lom;. And
a Waltham Watch is Worth waiting for.
Grade for grade no foreign watch can
compare with it.
&
VVE have made many statements of
VV Waltham invention in the me
chanics of watchmakings we have
opened the door of the "works" in a
Waltham Watch and created American
pride in this Waltham masterpiece.
We hae claimed world leadership in
watchmaking. "Here are the proofs"
has been our challenge and our pride.
Proofs we have given and still moro
proofs we intend to give: science at its
utmost in the alloy of a metal, in the
polishing of a part, in the setting of a
jewel, in the hardening and tempering
of steel, in the design of a balance
staff, in the bend of a guard pin or the
structural curve of a spring littlo
things, hidden things.
Yet it is these scientific inventions,
developments call them what you will
that have carried the fame of Wal
tham unto the uttermost ends of tho
earth.
You protect your investment. You
are assured time-keeping dependability.
You forestall costly repairs. You own
the utmost in fine watch-making when
you buy a
