Ai XV. C. BWAFFIEIiD. April 17_ WALTHAM WATCHES. THE extensive use of these watcbea for the last fifteen yeara by Railway Conductors, Engineers and Expressmen, the most exacting of wat ch - wearers, has thoroughly demonstrat? ed the Btrength, attadineea, durability and accuracy of tho Waltham Watch. To Batiafy that class in all these reapecta, ia to docidc the question aa to the real value of tbcae time? keepers. Moro than 450,000 of these watches aro now speaking for themselves in tho pockets of tho people-a proof and a guarantee ot their superiority over all others. Tho superior organization and great extent of tho Company's Works at Waltham, enable thora to produce watches at a prico which rendcra cumpetiotiou futile, and those who bny any other watch, merely pay from 25 to 50 por cent, moro for their watches than ia necosaary. Wo aro now Bolling Waltham Watches at less prices in greenbacks, than the gold prices before tho war. There is no other manufac? turo of any kind in the United States of which this can bo said. 'lheso timo-piccea combine every improve? ment that a long oxperienco bas proved of real practical uao. Having had the refusal of nearly every invention in watch ma sing origi? nating in this country or in Europe, ou^y th oso were finally adopted which sovere lesting, by tho most skillful artisans in oar works, and long uao on the part of the public, demonstrat? ed to bo essential to correct and enduring timekeeping. Among tho many improvements wc would particularizo: The invention and usc of a centre-pinion of peculiar construction, to prevent damage to tho train by tho breakage of main-springs, is original with the American Watch Company, who, haviug had the refusal of all other con? trivances, adopted Fogg's patent pinion as be ing tho best and faultless. Hardened and tempered hair springs, now universally admitted by watch-makers to bo tho boat, aro used in all grados of Waltham Watches. All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protecting tho movement from dust and les? soning tho necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches. Our now patent atom-winder, or koyless watch, is already a decided success, and a great improvement on any s tem-wind ing watch m tho American market, and by far the cheap? est watch of ita quality now offered to the public To those living in portions of the United States where watch-makers do not abound, watches with tho above mentioned improvements which tend to insure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience, must provo invaluable EvorY watch guarantocd by thc Company.
