In 1833 a brilliant inventor Antoine LeCoultre founded his first workshop.Today, the valley where Antoine LeCoultre and his son created their company is prestigious in contemporary watch***. The Jaeger-LeCoultre, which celebrated its anniversary of 175 years, introduced new interpretations of the Atmos clock, for which the year 2008 was also a milestone year. The Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos Clock is famous all over the world because of its two important functions: it is easy to mantain and functions in a really extraordinary way.The watch has no battery, electricity and even winding. The one who gave birth to that remarkable watch was Jean Leon Reutter . After graduating from the prestigious Zurich Institute of Technology as an engineer, Jean- Leon Reutter developed the principle of a clock with an outstanding ability to keep time for centuries without any external intervention. The company had a great success with 750,000 sold to date. Furthermore , the clock`s mechanism is so environmentally- friendly that it would take 60 million to produce enough energy for lighting a single 15 watt bulb. At the anniversary of 80 years of the Atmos, Jaeger-LeCoultre has established three entirely original models produced in close cooperation with leading artists and craftsmen. The initial has been made by well- known designer Marc Newson, who has been captured by the clock. In this way,the designer Marc Newson contacted Jean- Leon Reutter to present his ideas about *** a new model. The Atmos 561 by Marc Newson has enveloped in a Baccarat crystal ice- cube, encouraged by the contemporary design principles of pure lines and forms. For the second model of Atmos, the designer was inspired by the 17th century not by the contemporary design as you were thinking, when Andreas Cellarius drew his star chart. The Atmos Astronomique features a reproduction of a map of the heavens on a glass case. It is equipped with a complicated movement offering an eqation of time, the month and showing the constellations of the northern hemisphere. The third Jeager- LeCoultre Atmos modifies the exquisite art of marquetry. The case of the clock which automatically slides open, is a true masterpiece made in a limited edition of ten, being inlaid with hundreds of pieces of precious wood and gold leaf. The painstakingly gathered pieces reproduce the celebrated Portrait of Adele Bloch by Gustav Klimt. Even if you like things which are from Middle Age or which are contemporary, you are able to choose one of the most beautiful and elegant watches Jaeger- LeCoultre made throughout his life.Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos Clocks Pictures Gallery
