Crystal glaes, seconds hand ... p. 10 0 Hunting case, engraved, highly " finished .*. 0 14 0 Skeleton movement, estra jewelled, stout double cover ... 1 0 0 Oolrt Watch Jewelled, maintaining power, crystal glass ... 1 10 0 Half hunter, enamel or gold dial, lever escapement ... 1 16 0 Hunting case, superior nickel movement, best quality, with all the latest improvements, two gold covers 2 3 0 KEYLESS WATCHES (Stem winders). The keyless mechanism to a watch is one o£ the great modern improvements in watch work. It does away with the oldfashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a nurled 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 ibvious ; the case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
