In the “Waterbary” the jpoWer is applied directly, 'instead of being .multiplied by an elaborate system of; wheels; The spring is, consequently, a long one. Hence we often hear the objection that “it takes all day to wind. The Waterbary Co. could easily manufacture a quick-winding watch; but then it would not be 'the “cheapest watch in, the world,” or else it would not be a reliable timekeeper. In a word, it would not be the “ Waterbury. ” But because it is cheap do not think it is only a toy, or a “ watch good enough for children.” It dm ml the traits of the best makes, and as it adds to these unusual strength and durability, besides cheapness, it is essentially the watch for the, mechanic, the farmer 1 the °l®|£' the vrojkmg man-in a word, THE WATCH FOR THE PEOPLE. And it is sold by all Storekeepers and Dealers throughout the Colony. PRICE, 13s 6d. ‘ ARTHUR BRISCOE AND CO., Princes street, Dunedin, PRANK A.
