WATCHES.
Our stock of watches 1
1 speaks eloquently of good
5 things, and there are
many people -whose hap-
py experiences confirm
the reliability and worth a
of them K
Our success as watch
sellers has not been
merely fortuitous, but is
the result of the unwav-
ering integrity and knowl-
edge gained by long t
years of study. Every
watch we sell is a guar-
anteed time keeper. St
Thus you have more t
reason to consider this
store as an obiect wor-
thy your seeking.
