AMERICAN WALTHAM WATCHES. Purchasers of Waltham watchea are cautioned against buying watches purporting to be of our manufacture, which are offered to the public at lower prices than the genuine Waltham can be sold at. We take this opportunity to state that the lowest grade, Waltham watch, with steel balance, in sterling silver case, cannot be sold at retail (in New Zealand) for less than £3 5s ; higher grades, in sterling silver cases, from £5 to £25; and in 18 carat gold from £15 to £100, can be bought of all respectable jewellers and watchmakers throughout the colony. We avail ourselves, too, of this occasion to announce that we have recently entirely remodelled the very popular grades of gentlemen's three-quarter plate movements known by the marks "Hillside," "Riverside,"and "Am. W. C 0.," also ladies'threequarter plate ".Royal," "Riverside," and "Am. W. Co." We embody in them such of the best results of our experience and study for 30 years as can be useful in this popular form of watch. We give these new model watches special recommendation to al who look for good performance and solid excellence at moderate cost. Buyers will observe the following trade marks on al genuine Waltham watches :— On the plate of the movement : Waltkam, Mats. Inside cover of cases made at Waltham ■T/it Company's Ctrtificaie. of Guarantee On English Hall marked cases : The Initials, A.B. AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY Waltham, Mass. [Aim-!]
