The Keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the great modern improvements is watch work, it does away with the old-fashioned key, with which so bany persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a purled knob, plaoed 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 ease, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preferring much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals. between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
