Wo.manutacture as our speciality only sterling silver dr gold stem winders (keyless watches). The keyless mechanism of watches is one of the most important and useful inventions of modem times. Instead of fumhling in one’s pockets to find the key, which when found is most always filled with dust—this of course being transferred to the watch —one has hut to turn a knurled button fitted to the pendant (or ring), thus winding the watch and regulating the bands by the same means , Our watches are everywhere recognised to be the best 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.
