Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Watch Adjuster's Manual: A Practical Guide for the Watch and Chronometer Adjuster in Making, Springing, Timing and Adjusting, for Isochronism, Positions and Temperatures In issuing this Third Edition of The Watch Adjuster's Manual, it is opportune to state for the information and assurance of the reader, that since the work was first published only two slight errors were brought to the notice of the author, and these were of such a trivial nature that they scarcely called for correction. This fact shows the extreme care and thoroughness with which the work was originally prepared, and is also proof of its accuracy and reliability of statement. It is also opportune here to make general acknowledgment of the letters received by the author from all parts of the world, giving assurance that the work was in truth what it was intended to be, the practical workman's standard authority. Unlike most technical treatises, the progress of time has added greatly to the value of this work. Railroad watch inspection, which has now become almost universal, has made the very finest workmanship imperative, and such workmanship implies a thorough knowledge of the methods described in this book. And in this connection it may be added that the workman who is qualified for railroad watch inspection has the best recommendation for the patronage of the community.
