Catalogue Note
Made in collaboration with the renowned Australian designer Marc Newson, Jaeger-LeCoultre reinterprets the Atmos clock by reworking its classical style while preserving all its essential features. Created to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Atmos clock, Marc Newson chose to use an 'extra-clear' glass for the case in order for light to shine directly on the clock without altering its colours. The bubble-shaped crystal case was handmade and blown at the Baccarat glass workshop in France.
