It does away with the oldfashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a nurled kriob, placed on the handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in tbe , 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. / Silver-Keyleu* Watcli > ' £ s. d. ) Lever movement, flat, -jewelled, ' ) crystal glass ... 0 17 C Double cover, enamelor orna- -.
