The intention of the Inventor is to give to the owners of valuable watches the security and confidence hitherto not enjoyed; as it is unhappily too well-known that the wearer of so useful an article as a watch is always in danger of having it wrenched from him. In many instances, gentlemen have discontinued to display their watch guards for fear of losing the watch attached to it, therefore being under the necessity of putting away a useful and elegant part of dress.
Watches made with the above improvement are keyless; the Watch being wound and the hands set to the time, and the Watch itself protected by this novel invention. The pendant being a universal joint, cannot be wrenched off.
The Self-protecting Pendant can be fixed to any Watch for a small cost.
The invention has been highly approved of by a number of scientific gentlemen.
A MAGISTRATE’S OPINION.
“The invention is an excellent one—the best of the kind that I have seen, as it prevents pick-pockets from wrenching the watch from the guard; and I consider it of great value in its tendency to lessen crime: the ease with which a watch can be wrenched from the guard by the bow, is the cause of Watch stealing being practised to so great an extent.”
