Catalogue Note
Invented by Jean-Léon Reutter in 1928, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos clock is an exceptional fusion of technical knowledge and utility. This particular example is from the Modern Style series which features the Atmos calibre 528/1. The case is a very cohesive blend of 70s styling featuring a curved window, while the dial and applied black square indexes and reminiscent of the Art Deco Period.
