THE GOLDEN WATERBURY

By last mail steamer the first parcel of Gold Waterburya ever shipped to Australasia were received, and are now on view at all our agencies. These are the handsomest watcheß obtainable anywhere. They combine the famous timekeeping qualifications of the older series, with the BhortneßS of mainspring of an English Lover. Any person desiring •• the correct time " in a gold case is advised to call and invest £2 103 in the new Golden Waterbury. The Golden Watbbbury ... £2 10s The Golden Watebbury ... £2 10a The Golden Watebbury. ... £2 10a The Golden Waiebbubt ... £2 10s The Aluminum Bronze Waterbury is the same watoh as the above, but instead of the well-known Waterbury movement being enoased in Gold, it is finished in a combination of metala oloaely resembling the precious metal, but less costly, although equally durable. The Aluminum Bkoszb Waterbury £2 The Aluminum Bronze Waterbury £2 The Aluminum Bronze Watebbury £2 The Aluminum Bronze Wateebury £2 The Dadies' Waterbury is too well known to need any description. Thia unique and trustworthy watoh is carried and prized by many of the leading lad es of the age. It is unpretentious in appearance, but neat and thoroughly reliable. Any parent wishing to inculcate habits of punctuality ia his daughters should give them a Ladies' Waterbury, short wind, with enamelled dial.

As 75,000 Gentlemen's Waterburys have been sold by the writer in New Zealand alone during the past four years, and more than half a million more during the same period in. Australia, the vendors of trashy imitations can safely be left to console themselves with a " soda and bitterness " at their own expense. It's surprising what a lot of rubbishy imitations are offered for sale. One " gentleman " in Canterbury, who has been an industrious collector of Waterbury watoh boxes, imports a special " Waterbury " of his own, which never has been known to " go," and certainly never will bo. The poorest apology ever submitted for a watoh was offered the writer by a Christchuroh jeweller, securely esconaed in a Waterbury watoh box, as a genuine WATERBUBy, so that the public desiring the correot time must see that the monogram of the Company, W.W.0., is on the face of every watch, being only from our recognised agents.
