exhibits a wonderful class of complicated watches, calendars,
repeaters, chronographs, etc., etc., combined in one watch, and
elaborately cased and artistically finished. The great element of
merit in this exhibit is in the combination of the great number
of unusual functions for a watch, and by skill in workmanship and
mechanical science securing a correct performance.
The enormous cost of these watches is an effectual embargo on their
use to any except the very few, and their utility is, therefore,
very limited. In their class they are, however, of the first order of
merit, and adjudged a first-class award.
