IMPORTANT FOR WATCHMAKERS. IMPORTANT FOB EVERYBODY ! The Rodanow Manufacturing Company (Limited) — Capital 2,000,000d01., Boston (America), — will forward, hereafter, even one single watch to any part of the world at wholesale price, i.e., 35 per cent, cheaper than any watchmaker, as none of them is manufacturing watches himself, but only buying them from here. We call the particular attention of every one intending to purchase a first-class reliable watch to our following price-list :—: — KEY-WINDING WATCHES. & s. d. SILVER WATCH, Crystal glass, seconds hand 0 10 0 ,» „ Hunting case, engraved, highly finished... 0 14 0 „ „ Skeleton movement, Extra Jeweled, stout double cover 10 0 Gold Watch, Jeweled, Maintaining Power, Crystal glass 1 10 0 „ „ Half Hunter, Enamel or Gold Dial, Lever escapement 1 16 0 „ „ Hunting Case, Superior Nickel Movement, best quality with all the latest improvements, 2 Gold Covers ... 2 3 0 KEYLESS WATCHES (Stem-Winders). The Keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the great modern improvements in watch work, it does away with the old-fashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a nurled knob, placed on the handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in the same way. The advantages of these improvements are obvious, the case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch. £ s. d.
