43-49-4. Invoice of sale for secondhand watch; filing of duplicate invoice by vendor; inspection by prosecuting attorney

Any person, firm, partnership, association, or corporation engaged in the business of buying or selling watches or any agent or servant thereof who may sell a secondhand watch or in any other way pass title thereto shall deliver to the vendee a written invoice bearing the word "secondhand" in bold letters, larger than any of the other written matter upon said invoice. The invoice shall further set forth the name and address of the vendor, the name and address of the vendee, the date of the sale, the name of the watch or its maker, the serial number, if any, and any other distinguishing numbers or identification marks upon its case and movement. If the serial numbers or other distinguishing numbers or identification marks shall have been erased, defaced, removed, altered, or covered, the invoice shall so state. The vendor shall keep on file a duplicate of the invoice for at least two and one-half years from the sale thereof, which invoice shall be open to inspection during all business hours by the appropriate prosecuting attorney of the county in which the vendor is engaged in business or in which his duly authorized representative is engaged.
