The Keyless Mechanism to a watch Is one of the great modern improvements in watch work, it does away with the old-fashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a nnrled knob, placed on the handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in the same way. The advantages of these -improvements are obvious, the case, which never need be opened In winding, is made air tight and dust tight, thus pietierving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary oleanlng of the watch.
