Found
A Watch
IT looks as if it belongs
to a substantial citizen.
It feels that way, too;
it's smooth and solid and
thin. It slips into your
pocket like a silver dollar
and lies there snug and flat.
It keeps good time. It's
the kind of watch your
friends check their time by
that always gets you to
vour train while it is still
in the station.
I've been looking for this
watch for years. I know
my customers ivnnt a imall,
thin, accurate, 4-jewel watc h ;
but until now the price oi
suchawatch has been more
than many of them cared to
pay. That's why this new
one is such a find. It is
the "Waterbury Watch",
a new Ingtrioll, and the
price is just about a third
what you tMnk it would
be. It's three Mian.
