"I know they'll all be pleased!"



"There's an extensive variety of Westclox to choose from. Alarms in lustrous nickel or exquisite color... so refined in beauty of design and finish that they may also be employed as timepieces in any room in the home; good looking and dependable Pocket Watches for men and boys; an attractive and reliable Auto clock for the car; and Tiny Tim, a handy little timekeeper without alarm for the desk of a business associate... the classroom... the study... or for the handbag of one who travels."

Ad for Wextclox, 1929

"Two Wrists Shall Tick as One!"


"There is no Christmas gift more expressive, more cherished than a watch. At bestowal it is a symbol - of affection. With use it becomes - a friend. A Winton is both - and more. Its models are the latest expression of an art practiced by one family for over one hundred years."

Ad for Winton watches, from 1928.
