Jaeger-LeCoultre's famous 'Atmos' clock was first developed in 1928.
"JLC ATMOS clock is one of the world’s most innovative clocks, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos is a visionary technical masterpiece. Powered by atmospheric pressure and temperature changes, it’s essentially a perpetual motion device, allowing ittorun for years without human intervention. The Atmos is such a ground-breaking creation that it’s chosen as a traditional gift to heads of state and dignitaries".
A change in temperature of one degree can provide enough power to run the clock forfewdays, and the mainspring has enough power in reserve to run the clock for a year. Energy is conserved by the very slow-moving twisting pendulum which 'beats' only twice per minute. The movement is very silent.
Warning!!! These clocks can have troubles to wind in premises with high quality climate control systems (where air temperature is very stable).
