Unique in the world.
Atmos, the clock that lives on air.
Temperature variations are its source of power. Its balance
will oscillate as long as the sun shines. Rises in temperature
dilate the gaseous mixture trapped in the expansion chamber
which then compresses the winding spring. In the event of a
fall in temperature, the reverse occurs. The gas contracts and
the spring relaxes. This imperceptible back-and-forth motion
is sufficient to wind the Atmos clock.
No battery, no electrical power, no winding.
Precise and silent.
Precautions for operation and transport
The Atmos clock is a very high-precision instrument manufac-
tured with technologies such as only the master-watchmakers
of Jaeger-LeCoultre are capable of handling.The power nee-
ded for this clock to operate is extremely low, which means
that your Atmos clock must be placed on a horizontal sup-
port that is completely stable (chest of drawers, console, etc.)
to ensure optimum operating conditions. Once it has been
started, the clock must not be moved : the cabinet or support
must be cleaned without handling or moving the clock.
If, however, your clock had to be moved, it is essential to block
the balance.To do so, push the balance blocking lever to the
right up to the thrust stop. Perform this essential blocking
operation when the balance stops,before starting again in the
opposite direction.
For transport, use the complete original packaging.
For the Atmos Classique only :
Tighten the locking screw under the cabinet; as soon as it is
in contact with the balance nut, do an additional one-quarter
turn while blocking it with your hand.
