Jaeger Le Coultre
Atmos v "Chinoise" (Marina) Chinese Aquarium Gold plated brass case with elements made of acrylic glass Supplied with original overcasing from the 1960s Details With an Atmos you acquire a beautiful and very sophisticated watch. Excerpt from Wikipedia: In 1928 Jean-LĂ©on Reutter developed the Atmos table clock. This watch draws the mechanical energy to wind the mainspring from the smallest fluctuations in air pressure and temperature. A temperature change of 1 k (according to other data 2 k) is sufficient for an operating time of about 48 hours. The "Atmos" is still manufactured by the Swiss watch company Jaeger-Le Coultre and is the official state gift of Switzerland. The first, now very rare, Atmos clocks with a mercury motor are now highly sought after by collectors. Jaeger-Le Coultre bought this patent and developed it further. In the 1930s, the mercury engine was replaced by the nitrous oxide engine, which is still used today. To learn more about the history and the function of the Atmos, it is recommended to get the book "Living from the air - The history of the pendulum clock Atmos" by Jean Lebet. A popular opinion is that the Atmos watches from the 1940s and 1950s have the best movement qualities, but of course younger Atmos are also very well made and therefore wonderful collector's items. The Atmos is a very robust watch and has a very good accuracy. One of the manufacturer's old slogans even promises over 600 years of maintenance-free operation - which may be difficult to verify. To enjoy the watch for a long time, you should follow a few rules: Only allow watchmakers to work on the watch who know how to do this. Be careful when cleaning the house - Cleaning and detergents have already damaged many watches - Never move the Atmos unsealed do not expose to direct sunlight (dial in window sill) vibration-free location and the scale should be optimally aligned. Dial Enamel white dial with Arabic numerals and gilded hands. Housing Gold plated brass case with acrylic glass. The front glass pane can be opened. Gilded Chinese depictions are embedded in the acrylic glass. Dimensions: width 19 cm x height 24 cm x depth 14 cm.
