Fahys Honest 14K/25YR

The "Honest" grade replaced the Monarch grade as early as June 1897. This grade was produced until around 1905, when the Fahys company focused efforts on the new "Permanent" grade to be sold alongside the 20-Year Montauk.

By 1906, the company was actively advertising the "Bristol" 25-Year case (technically a product of the Brooklyn Watch Case Company, owned by Fahys at the time), along with the Montauk and Permanent grades.
