Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos Hybris Artistica ‘Tellurium’

©

The Jaeger-LeCoultre and Atmos Hybris Artistica “Tellurium,” designed by Marc Newson, is a remarkable clock that accurately tracks the movements of Earth, the Moon, and the seasons.

Following the Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos Hybris Mechanica Calibre 590, this new version of the highly complex Atmos clock is enclosed in a glass globe and limited to only three pieces.

The design features a sapphire-covered star globe with engraved constellations, along with a finely detailed lunar display.

Tracks real cosmic movements:
-Earth completes its orbit around the Sun in 365.2466 days
-The Moon orbits Earth in 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, and 2 seconds
-Moon phase display stays accurate for 5,770 years

Powered by air:
The Atmos mechanism, invented in 1928 by Jean-Léon Reutter, runs using tiny temperature changes in the air. A variation of just one degree is enough to wind the spring, allowing the clock to operate with near perpetual motion.
