pirky Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Back in the 1800's the Tate's Watch Company of Massachusetts wanted to produce other products, and since they already made the cases for watches, they used them to produce compasses. The new compasses were so bad that people often ended up in Canada or Mexico rather than California. This, of course, is the origin of the expression, ... "He who has a Tate's is lost!"
