! F, JBL4CK, PRACTICAL WATCH & CLOCK MAKER, -—; EAST STREET, ASH-BURTON. UNDER.THE MANAGEMENT OF Mil ANDREW BLACK. Bronze Medalist for Watchmaking, London, 1887. -; Certificated from the City and Guilds of London Institute. Certificated from the British TTor< domical Institute, Lon>loi!, First Award of Merit as a Wo kumu frcm the People's Palace Exlubr.iun, Loudo* MR ANDREW BLACK was a stiulenfc at the British Horologic-il Institute and passed through all the difl'ereiit Branches, making two watches, one -a key winder and one keyless ; he is therefore thoroughly competent to repair properly any watches that may be entrusted to him. He has noticed, while m the colony, that watches are very often entirely npoiled through being entrusted for repair to men who lack the necessary training. No one but a practical man can understand how to repair a watch properly, and as there fo no royal road to watchmaking, good teaching and years of practice are necessary before a man can (with truth) call himself a watchmaker. Anyone poMeasiog * valuable watch cannot therefore be too careful to keep it out of the hands of un trained men. ———o All work will now be done personally by MR BLACK.
