The keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the great modern improvements hi watch work. It does away with tlie 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. Tho advantages of these improvements are -bvious ; the caso, which never need bo opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging tho intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
