In case of acci-dental injury thoy can bo repaired moro econo-mically than any others, iib any wheel, screw, spring, in fact any part of tho watch can bo sup-plied at once from tho General Office or by Watchmakers who keep tho Watches for Salo.

This is owing to tho fact that all Waltham Watches aro mado on tho inteuciianoeaiu.k system,- in which similar parts in every watch of each grade, aro mado to au exact Bizo without any variation whatever, nnd will always fit iu thoir proper placo without tho least adjustment.

This is nu iucstimnblo advantage to thoso living in romoto plnces nnd is ono reason for tho great popularity of Waltham Watches milong MINERS, FaIIMEIIS, STOCK lUlSEUS, SOLDII'.IIS, nnd au. otheus in new and unsettled localities.
