Le Coultre Vintage Clocks

The LeCoultre Watch Company and/or Jaeger-LeCoultre (as they were later called after the merger with the Ed Jaeger company) are responsible for the manufacture of many wonderful clocks and timepieces, but it is the LeCoultre Atmos Clock that is most frequently sought after by collectors.

This is an ingenious clock that is powered by small changes in the atmosphere, hence the name. It was invented by an engineer named Jean-Leon Reutter who was curious whether a perpetual motion clock was actually possible and LeCoultre eventually bought his patent after he successfully invented the clock, but had difficulty marketing it
