Just plain carelessness
That is what ruins a good watch ; .
You can safely let your watch run a year
without having it cleaned and oiled.
When you wait longer, you're damaging
your watch.
Bring it to Clinton's today and have it
examined. If it needs any attention it
will be saving money to have it done
now.
It is always economy to have Clinton
do your watch and clock repairing because
you get perfect work guaranteed and the'
charge is the lowest for which perfect
work can possibly be done.
