An automobile needs frequent attention. What about your watch a mechanism infinite ly more delicate? CARBON In the motor of n car will decrease the running efficiency of that car. And yet the carbon will accumulate. The car owner, knowing this, has his car frequently overhauled and the carbon removed. And yet this same man, per haps, will allow his watch, a mechanism infinitely more deli cate, to run for years without attention. All the while it is ac cumulating dust for tiny dirt particles will sift in through the most tightly fitting ensc-and this will in time Impede the timekeep ing performance of the watch.
