THE LADIES' WATERBURY WATCH

Is a plain niokel-plated timekeeper, which its functions as well in water os it does in the owner’s pocket, and is sold for 22s 6d by oil storekeepers and dealers throughout the Colonies. Persons afflicted with doubt as to the advertised merits of the wonderful Waterbary Watches can inspect the originals of all published testimonials on application at the Company’s head Australasian offices in Sydney, or they can buy a Water bury, and test it in competition with one of the "cheap English levers” constructed for the benefit of tho credulous, composed of nine-tenths of case, and the remainder stamped rubbishy Swiss mechanism; which accounts for all the milk there is in that particular cocoanut. The Ladies’ Waterbury (Series " L ”),like the other products of this world-famed factory, is only just what is claimed for it—a perfectly reliable timekeeper, equally adapted to the necessities of alive duchess or a washerwoman, and sold at a price that places it within the reach of all classes. The watch itself has, since its introduction, given universal satisfaction. It is not only an accurate but also a neat and elegant little timekeeper, similar in construction to the new short-winding gentleman’s Waterbury (Series “J”), but smaller, and without seconds-hand. Mr Chas. J. Horstey, J.P., G.P.S., Mudgee, N.S.W., who is tho happy possessor of one of these watches, writes:—" I have much pleasure in stating that my Waterbury Watch (a Series " L”) is without exception one of tho bast watches I ever owned, although I have had many more expensive. It is a reliable and excellent timekeeper.” To bo obtained from any respectable storekeeper or denier; price 22b 6d' Wholesale agents for Canterbury, Messrs E. Keece and Co.; and Ashby, Berghand Co., Christchurch.
