HE "OYSTER" WRIST WATCH is the world- famous ROLEX movement effectively sealed against all the elements. It is Waterproof, Dustproof and Sandproof...Extremes of temperature cannot affect the reliability of the "OYSTER", neither the intensely cold atmosphere of Arctic regions nor the hot, moist climate of Equatorial countries. can disturb the wonderful precision movement which is hermetically scaled against all harmful elements.
This, remarkable watch is even Perspiration Proof
It is essential for use in the Tropics and especially recommended to all active Sportsmen and Sportswomen.
Because of its undeviating precision and 'absolure reliability in all climates the "OYSTER" Wristlet is a great favourite with the "Services"-many Naval and Military Officers have expressed their entire satisfaction with the behaviour of the "OYSTER" under the most exacting conditions.

being able to get back whence it came.
That the United States is a self- contained nation without any con- siderable overseas commitments is an argument which is certain to loom large at the Naval Confer ence in an effort to persuade the United States to hecept some rela- tive reduction of her naval strength as compared with other navies, all of which are maintain- ed solely for the protection of Overseas interests. Dependence upon overseas trade and colonies. should surely be the measure of the strength of the navy required. And the reintion of the commit- ments of the three great Naval Powers in the Pacific is much the same an it is throughout the world. No other Power can claim more than a fraction of the coast line that the British Empire has to protect, or utter dependence apon seaborne trade, carried over 85,000 miles of trade routes.
