Jaeger Le Coultre Atmos Clock 566


While not technically a watch, the Jaeger Le Coultre Atmos Clock 566 is technically beautiful.  This astronomically-inspired timepiece is an homage to an 83-year-old clock by the same brand, a reflection of continuity for a company whose work is measuring continuity.  The Atmos Clock features a Baccarat crystal case that contains a new movement, the Jaeger-LeCoultre 566 Calibre.  In its center, a map of the heavens is outlined by a smaller, concentric circle that shows the sky’s position for the user.  While a complicated machinery spins within, the display is easily readable for the time and the piece’s position under the night sky above.
