Compare the results now obtained from the best chronometers of modern make, with the performances of the old wooden Dutch clocks, familiar, no doubt, to some of us, and themselves a great improvement on Henry the Wick’s clock (1374), the first timepiece driven by a weight, and having a balance; the escapement being similar to that of the verge watches some of which are still in use. By the continual research, and unremitting perseverance of generations of clever artists, the science which gave so little promise at the beginning has been elaborated until practice and theory are so perfected and reconciled that the art of watchmaking now ranks second to no other. Even cheaply constructed watches and good verges, by “ conversion ” can be made to give good results at a moderate outlay by W.
