Chalfont Clocks has dated this Jaeger Lecoultre Atmos Clock to the 1960s.
This example dates from 1960 and the mechanism is housed in a gilt brass case with a brushed pedestal. The glass sides allow you to see the ingenious movement for all angles. These Atmos Clocks come in variety of designs, and this stylish example of Mid-Century design is one of our favourites.
The ‘Atmos’, first invented in 1928, has no external power source and never needs to be wound by hand. It isn’t powered by a suspended weight, as most pendulum clocks are. The Atmos clock gets its power from minute changes in atmospheric temperature, hence its name. Within a sealed capsule, a mixture of gases expand and contract with each temperature change. This is how the mechanism winds naturally without any human intervention.
This clock has been overhaulled and comes with our 2 year guarantee.
