I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorburn) has carried it every day since tJ en at his work, mining, bush work, riding, &c, and it has never cost him one penny for repairs. Thewatck is a splendid timekeeper, and would cost in Auckland at least Ten Guineas. My son could have sold the watch a score of times, for double the price that it cost him, but would not part with it on any account. I may also say that I know several here who have sent for your watches, and they have given the greatest satisfaction. You are at perfect liberty to publish this if you wish, as I am well known here.
