    Watchmakers term….jewels (usually saphire ,in rare cases diamonds) were bearings to
    prevent wear. A watch with jewels at every location where a jewel was appropriate was
    said to be fully jeweled. Advertising implying your outboards were "Fully Jeweled" emphasized
    the use of ball and roller bearings feature and implied your product had precision and quality
    of a fine watch.
