l*lil>lic XotitA'H IMPORT A NT for W aYcII AIAKEK S IMPORTANT for EVERYBODY. rpilE RODANOW MANPFACTUIUXG 1 CUMP AN V (Limited— Capital, 2,000.000dol.), Boston, America, will forward, hereafter, even one single watch to any part of the world at wholesale price, i.e., VJ) per cent, cheaper than any watchmaker, as none of them is manufacturing watches himself, hut only buying them from here. We call the particular attention of everyone intending to purchase a first-class reliable watch to our following price-list:— KKY-WIXDIXG WATCHES. Milv«-r Wateli £ s. d. Crystal gla_s, seconds hand ... 0 10 0 Hunting case, engraved, highly finished 0 14 0 Skeleton movement, extra jewelled, stout double cover ... 1 0 0 ttolrt Watcli 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 (Stum windkks). The keyless mechanism to a watch is one of 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 mirled knob, placed on the handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in tho same way. The advantages of these improvements are ibvious ; tho case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving ! much longer tho fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
