OUR Company is selling direct to the customer, thus procuring for the latter, a double economy, namely, the profit of the wholesale dealer, and the more considerable one of the retail dealer, amounting to from 6s to 1210 upon a single watch. Retail watch-dealers and jewellers, usually selling but a few watches daily, are forced to make an extraordinary profit upon each one sold in order to defray their general expenses. \Ve manufacture as our speciality only sterling silver or gold stemwinders (keyless watches). The keyless mechanism of watches is oue of the most important and useful inventions of modern times. Instead of fumbling in one’s pockets to find tho Icey, which when found is most always filled With dust—this of course being transferred to the watch—one has but to turn n knurled button fitted to the pendant (or ring), thus winding the watch and regulating the hands by the same means. Our watches are everywhere recognised to be the beat in the market, surpassing all others by the precision of their movements as well as by their accuracy and cheapness. Our factory, since its foundation in 1852, has acquired a world-wide reputation, and obtained the highest awards from all the important Exhibitions. No watch leaves our factory without having been carefully examined and verified, thus being ready for immediate use. Each oue is put up in an elegant silk-lined case, and accompanied by a warranty for three years. The buyer may return any of our watches within six months should the latter not afford him the most complete satisfaction. All articles sold are delivered post free, and Customs duty paid to any part of the world, thus without the slightest trouble or formality to the receiver. All repairs during the 3 years ot guarantee are executed gratuitously, if the watch be forwarded to our London office. The following are cash prices without discount: £ a.
