FRICTION THE ENEMY
Therefore pivots are finely polished. Jewels are
of ruby or sapphires; the oil carefully refined; all
to reduce fricton. On these bearings the balance
revolves 432,000 times daily, astounding isn’t it?
Yet cleaned and oiled yearly a watch will run for
generations, and if neglected, it must with such un
ceasing toil, wear itself to ruin in accumulating dirt
and corroding oil. Let me ex amine it, an honest
opinion from me will cost you nothing.
