(Stem-Winders.) The keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the greatest modem 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 obvious, the case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air tight and dust-tight, tiius preserving much longer the fluidity of tho oil, and greatly prolonging tho intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
