DESCRIPTION
- Atmos Classique, time with an open heart.
At once classical and entirely avant-garde, the crystal base-mounted cabinet of the new Atmos is the very embodiment of restraint and purity. Bathed in light, the clock itself seems to float weightlessly, untouched by the effects of earthly gravity.
The extraordinary technical achievement embodied by the Atmos for nearly 80 years now has always been accompanied by an equally ferocious aesthetic quest to discover the best way possible to display the perfection of its mechanism. There are two versions of the Atmos Classique. In each the mechanism floats in an airy sea of total transparency. In one, the months are indicated on an openwork disc at the centre of the dial in glass, while a second dial, positioned beneath in a rhodium-plated cradle bearing the Jaeger-LeCoultre logo, is home to the most precise moon-phase display in the history of horology – accurate to a single day every 3,821 years.
The balance makes majestic progress, completing just one oscillation every minute. Hanging it from an elinvar wire, an alloy chosen for its tremendous resistance to buckling or warping in standard thermal conditions, helps to ensure extreme functional accuracy. Each Atmos has to undergo weeks of trials and adjustments before it is allowed to leave the workshops. In this task, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s clockmakers bear a heavy responsibility. They know that it is their job to guide the first steps of a mechanism destined to far outlive their own human span.
The fascinating functioning of this mechanism, which famously achieves quasi-perpetual motion, is left open to view in the Atmos Classique’s transparent cabinet, which, mounted on a crystal base, attains an ineffable purity. The fact that nothing is hidden in no way diminishes the enigma of this most mysterious horological marvel. Instead, the Atmos’s transparency emphasises its supreme elegance – technical, aesthetic and moral.
Primed to measure out the centuries and mark the events that give shape to each of our lives, the eternal, enigmatic Atmos provides a perfect foil to any interior.
The Atmos, operating principles.
It was in 1928 that the Neuchâtel engineer Jean-Léon Reutter patented his design for a mechanism that ran on variations in pressure. The Atmos’s high-precision movement lives on air alone: that is, its sole source of energy is variations in the ambient air temperature. Each time the latter rises or falls by a single degree centigrade, the mechanism is able to store up enough energy to guarantee 48 hours of function. Its secret' A hermetically sealed gas-filled capsule which expands when the temperature rises and contracts when it drops: each time it does so it winds the clock’s mainspring. Drawing its inspiration from a brilliant invention, the Atmos has practically achieved perpetual motion.
Needless to say, the construction of this unique clock is an operation requiring extreme precision. In order to limit energy waste and reduce wear, the movement functions without lubricant – the friction of the latter on the gearwheels would be enough to bring the mechanism to a standstill. A few comparisons will suffice to illustrate the extraordinary technical achievement that is the Atmos: for instance, it may be the largest mechanism produced by Jaeger-LeCoultre, but its energy consumption is actually considerably less than that of the Calibre 101, the smallest watch movement of all time, also produced by the Manufacture. The Atmos uses scarcely a 240th part of the energy required by an ordinary wristwatch. Or, more vividly still, imagine this: it would take 60 million Atmos clocks to equal the energy consumption of a single 15-watt electric light bulb.
