BHEHR-+ GOFF, QUEEN SQUARE AND KING SQUARE STORES. Ch’town, Sept. 6, 1887—eod wky Why the Columbus Watch is the Best i ie Main Spring barrel is completely covered, making the watch perfectly dust proof. — There can be no interference between the Balance and the Barrel. The Regulator is nearly double the length of others, rendering accurate regulation a very simple matter. To replace a broken Main Spring, the Barrel can be removed without disturbing the Balance or interfering with the regulation. The pins of the Resebeter are so formed and located that two or more coils of the Hair Spring cannot catch between the Pins and cause the Watch to stop or gain time at an unusual rate. The Balance comes under the round, or edge, the strongest part of the case, not as with all others, under the center and weakest part. The Main Spring Power is the lightest used in American Watches. The calculation of the Train is such that this Watch runs 8 to 10 hours longer than others, with one winding, giving more uniform power and rate. These are improvements that cannot be claimed by any other manufacturers, and once seen, all must agree with us in saying that this is the strongest and best Watch made ; and with all the above improvements, the Columbus Watches cost no more than others.
