The Swiss developed the making of watches by hand to the highest point, at the same time eheeneulng band labor to the utmost possible extent. The Americans sought a eolutlon In a different direction by making the parts of their watches by machine*ry. and interchange. However, the coat oi manufacture still remained too great for the watch of the million. An enterprising Yankee Company finally solved the problem by dispensing with the greater number of parts of a watch (reducing the number from 160 to 57 I), making all of 'them by machinery, and so easy of ad Jusfcment that expert labor was notneeded to put them together. This crowning achievement in the history of watchmaking -.wasT accomplished by the Waterbury watch Company IU their Waterbury watch, which, though cheap is aa perfect In its parts and as reliable in its timekeeping as any watch made. Series "B"—the beat form of the original Waterbury—is a good serviceable watch, produced at a cost within the reach of aIL Keyless, reliable, durable, and accurate, it is without a peer for the man or boy in moderate circumstances. Series "J" (gent's, size) and "L" (ladies size) are thcf : latest productions of this famous factory. These are short- winding, stem-setting, enamel-dialled, jewelled, and dust-proof watches, with duplex escapements; and are just as good timekeepers as anyone could wish to carry. They have been unanimously declared to be perfect marvels of mechanical ingenuity. All J-bese watches are made by the best automatic' machinery, and thus, in event of accident, can be efficiently repaired at a-nominal cost, at any or the Company's repair depots or agencies, established for the convenience.of wearers in various centres throughout the colonies. The genuine Waterbury Watches may be obtained from any respectable dealer or storekeeper. Price—Series "E," 13s 6d ,j Series J" or "L" (enamel-dial), 2256 d (patent oial) 20s.
