IIow Watches are Made. It will be apparent to auy one, who will examine a Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing a large propor tion of the precious metal used, is nee ded only to stiffen ntid hold the engrav ed portions in place, and supply the [necessary solidity and strength. The surplus gold is actually needfess so far ns utility andltoauty arc concerned. In •Iames Boss’ Patent Gold Watoii Cases, this waste of precious metal is overcome, and the same solidity and strength produced at from one-third to one-lmlf of the usual cost of solid cases. I his process is of the most simple na ture, as follows: A plate of nicklc composition metal, cspenially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of solid gold soldered on each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and tho result is a strip of heavy plated composition, from which the cases, backs, centres, bezels, &e., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and for mers. The gold in these cases is suf ficiently thick to ndmit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and enameling ; the engraved cases have lieen carried until worn perfectly smooth by time and use without removing the gold. Ibis is the only ease made with two plates of Solid Gold and wurrauted by special certificate. For snle by all Jewelers.
