"UST as much care is used in selecting
, the jeweler to sell you a SOUTH
BEND watch as is used in making
the watch itself. , - " ,
v Not every jeweler, or person
. choosing to call , themselves so, or
kt'wh'o sell watches,; is permitted to
. i ; ,,selr SOUTH BEND AyATCHES.
' They are sold only by reliable; experienced
jewelers,; who can" properly K adjust jand care
for th cm. r'; You can buy them nowhere except
from our authorized representatives. s
Every jeweler, before he
can offer you a SOUTH
.BEND '-'Watch, before we
will consent tp sell him
our . watch . movements
must satisfy us that he is
competent to assist-you in
selecting the watch exact
ly suited toyour individ
ual needs and adjust it, as
every good watch must be
adjusted by a jeweler, in
such a manner as to give
you the greatest amount
of time-keeping service"
for your money. ' .
When you buy a South Bend Watch, you
know that you have had the most skilled watch
expert in your community to assist you in your
choice and look after your perfect satisfaction.
No other maker in all the world is willing
to spend the time and money necessary to pick
the jeweler. y r
We know it pays you and us, however, be
cause werknow, arid every watch manufacturer
and every good jeweler knows, that the watch
that keeps perfect time in your pocket cannot
be depended upon to keep time in another
man's pocket.
The highest grade, most costly watch made
will fail as a timekeeper unless it is adjusted
to meet the individual requirements of the
person carrying it.
You cannot adjust your watch yourself.
Only a skilled watchmaker can adjust the deli
cate screws., A variation of one hundred thou-
! it i
f-1 J
A SOUTH BEND Watch
wheel makes a difference of one second per
day; a difference of one one-thousandth part
in the. vibration means a gain or loss of a min
ute and a half a day, and a watch which varies
that much is useless as a good timekeeper.
All the skill that money and experience can
command is put into SOUTH BEND watches
and, grade for grade, they are superior to any
other watch made, but even a " South Bend
watch must be adjusted to thejndividual who
carries it if time-keeping service is to be ob
tained. . . .
No extra charge is made
for this service. '
We gladly pay the jew
eler for his assistance to
you, that, we may know
that every purchaser of a
SOUTH J BEND watch
has a satisfactory, time
piece. " ..
SOUTH - BEND
watches, cost no more
than other ' watches pf
similar, grade. Every
SOUTH BEND watch,
before it leaves the fac
tory, must undergo tests
that are twice as severe as the worst strain yoq
will ever give it. It is bake'd in an oven and
kept for hours in a refrigerator at freezing
point, to demonstrate that it will keep perfect
tim,e without being influenced by the changes
in temperature. It must keep perfect, time in "
every position, and not be affected by the. jars,
and jolts of railway trains, horseback riding,
automobiling,- etc.
You might freeze Jt in a block of ice with
out injuring it in the slightest degree.
No watch, no matter how good it might be
in itself, sold in the way other watches are
usually sold, could possibly' give the .service
that a SOUTH B$f'D watch -does. Your
jeweler will 'gladly show you this beautiful
modern watch and tell you about it. lie will :
explain to you why SOUTH BEND watches
keep time better than any other watch'. . If .
your jeweler is riot our representative, Send us
his name and we will take the' matter up with -.
him personally, and also send you, free, ou
handsome book, "How Good Watches atffc ,
Made," and a little device showing how a.
SOUTH BEND watch adjusts itself 'to every
