THE GOLDEN WATERBURY.

By last mail steamer the first parcel of Gold Waterburys ever shipped to Australasia were received, and are now on view at all our agencies. These are the handsomest watches obtainable anywhere. They combine tho famous time-keeping qualifications of the older series, with the shortness of mainspring of an English Lever. Any person desiring " the correct time " in a gold case is advised to call aud iuvest £2 10s in the new Golden Waterbury. The Golden WATEKBUfty ... £2 10s The Goldun Watbubuhy ... £2 10s The Goldex \\ atbbbujrx, .. £2 10i The Goldex Waterbuuy ... £2 10d The Aluminum Bronze Waterbury is the same watch as the above, but instead of the well-kuown Waterbury movements being oncased in Gold, it is finished in a combination of metals closely resembling the precious metal, but less costly, although equally durable. The AiiUMixxßi Bronze Waterbuky £2 The Aluminum Bronze Waterbujiy £2 The Aluminum Bronze Waterbury £2 The Aluminum Bronze Waterbury £2 The Ladies' Watorbnry is too well known to need any' description. This unique and trustworthy watch is carried and prized by many of the leading ladies of the age. It is unpretentious in appearanoe, but neat and thoroughly reliable. Any parent wishing to inculcate habits of punctuality in his daughters should give them a Ladies' Waterbury, short wind, with enamelled dial. The Ladies' Waterbury £1 2s Gd The Ladies' Waterbury £1 2s 6d The Ladies' Waterbury £1 2s Gil The Ladies' Waterbury £1 2s GJ The Gentlemen's Short Wind Waterburv "J," with enamelled dial, seconds hand, and jewelled movement, is a strong, serviceable watch, infinitely superior to many of the gaudy "chronic- graphs" made in Continental backslants, and fathered in England, which, with a guarantee to " go "as long as they are parried, are considered fair value for from four to ten guineas. As 75,000 Gentleman'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. Qne «< gentleman "in Canterbury, who has been an indnstrions collector of Waterbury watqh boxes, imports a spocial *' Waterhury " of his own, which never has been known to <' go," and certainly never will. The poorost apology ever submitted for a watch was offered the writer by a Christchurch jeweller, securely ensconced in a Waterbury watch box, as a genuine waterbury, so that the public desiring the CORRECT time must see that the monogram of the Company, W.W.C., is on tho face of every watch, being only from our recognised agents.
