Many people are surprised that America undertakes to supply Watches to England At ' , first sight it seems like • l sending coals to Newcastle." But the matter is easily explained. Nowhere, except m America, is Watch-making conducted on the principle of making' a . complete Watch under one roof. In no other country are automatic machines used in the , construction of every part of the Watch. From these two facts arise economy,. and [ therefore cheapness ; in addition to which, the product of the factory is necessarily We . uniform in quality than if manufactured in the disjointed manner common in Enelancßp? Switzerland. c ; THE (WALTHAM) WATCH FACTORY covers three acres, employs one thousand , operatives, and produces 300 watches per day; 800,000 of its manufacture are now in use in ( America, giving perfect satisfaction. THE RAILWAY WATCH, manufactured by the American (Waltham) Watch' Com- , pany, for the special use of Railway Employes and Travellers, is noted for its accuracY as i a timekeeper; and by the introduction of a quick "train" and more rapid "beat" is less liable to injury if dropped or knocked, than the Watch hitherto obtainable in the English market.
