WATCHMAKERS. GOLD AND SILVER WATCHES AT GREATLY REDUCED PRICES AT | AND T. YOUNG'S, Direct Bteam communication with Great Britain has induced numbers of our citizens to pay visits to the Home Country, and those who pm posed getting a good Gold Watch usually supply themselves with one while at Home, thinking thereby that they get it much cheaper than they would in the colony. This would, no doubt, be the case did the Home watchmaker sell at the same profit as we do here; but it is a well-known fact that the best shops at Home get enormous profits, so that, although we have a duty of 16J per cent, here, we can still sell at as low a figure. With a view, however, to induce the Public to purchase all their goods here, and to meet the present depressed times. C-. AND T. YOUNG are now revising the whole of their Prices, commencing with the nricesof GOLD and SILVER WATCHES. They hare reduced them to such an extent that the same quality of Watches cannot be purchased in England for the money. For instance, G. AND T. YOUNG'S GENT'S GOLD HUNTING KEYLESS CHRONOGRAPH, full jewelled movement, compensation balance, adjusted to heat and cold, also to position (the finest Lever Watch made), is now offered at L 67105. The London price of this Watch is 75 guineas. It will naturally be asked how can G. and T. Young do this? The answer simply is G. AND T. YOUNG have facilities possessed by no others in the colony for getting their goods landed in New Zealand at the lowest possible cost. They have no commissions to pay to Home buyers; Mr George Young, one of the partners, doing the buying in England. They buy for cash and secure all discounts. No provision has to be made for covering risk of bad stock; Mr George Young, having a thorough knowledge of the requirements of the trade here, is able to send exactly what is suitable. The expenses of management here aie very low, and, as only a moderate profit is put on landed cost, no house can sell cheaper, if any so cheap. SILVER HUNTING LEVER WATCHES Now offered at following prices : , Silver Hunting Lever Watch, strong cases, sound, capped, and EVERY jewelled movement, £3los. The WATCH cheapest Watch in the colony.
