European Watch, Clock and Jewellery Fair 1979 BF 610
The first Atmos clock came out exactly fifty years ago. 0Then as now, it was the only clock in the world to live on air : a mere 1°C difference in temperature suffices to wind its mainspring for 48 hours. 500,000 Atmos models have been produced in the half-century since. To commemorate this milestone, Jaeger-LeCoultre has created a collector’s item : the limited-edition Atmos Jubilé, sold by subscription only. With a working principle that has stood the test of time, the Atmos has amply demonstrated its excellence. (JAEGER-LECOULTRE - “Atmos Jubilé”)
