IMPOIITANT forWATCHiITKERS IMPORTANT for EVERYBODY. rpilE RODANOW MANUFACTURING _L C 0 M P ANY (Limited— Capital, 2,000,000dol.), DuHton, America, will forward, liprenfter, even one single watch to any pnrt of tlie world at wholesale price, i.e., 35 per cent, cheaper than any watchmaker, as none of them is manufacturing watches himself, hut only buying them from here. We call flip particular attention of everyone intending to purchase a first-class reliable watch to our following price-list:— KEY-WINDING WATCHES. Silver IVntcli £ s. d. Crystal fflaes, seconds hand ... 0 10 0 Hunting case, engraved, highly finished 0 14 0 Skeleton movement, extra jewelled, stout double cover ... 1 0 0 «ol«? WateJi Jewelled, maintaining power, crystal glass ... 1 10 0 Half hunter, enamel or gold dial, lever escapement ... 1 1G 0 Hunting case, superior nickel movement, best quality, with all the latest improvements, two gold covers 2 3 0 KEYLESS WATCHES (Stem winders). The keyless mechanism to a watch is one o£ the great modern improvements in watch work. It does away with the oldfashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a niirled knob, placed on the handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; tho hands are set in the same way. The advantages of these improvements are ibvious ; the case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of tho oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
