Many years Elizabeth II!



All house Jaeger-LeCoultre has prepared for the anniversary of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II one more show. Recently, we talked about the special series of watches and miniature Reverso Grande Reverso Ultra Thin. Now we will focus on desktop mechanism Atmos du Millénaire. On the outer circle of the dial clockwise spiral twisted, measured years from 2000 to 3000. The expectations Windsor dynasty is not even a hundred years. In the center is the clock dial. In twelve hours - an indicator of the month, and the six - phases of the moon. Eternal Atmos mechanism invented in 1928. It does not require any winding or batteries. No, the miracle of the creation is not subject to magicians from Jaeger-LeCoultre. The secret lies in a sealed capsule on the back side, which converts temperature fluctuations in energy for the operation of the mechanism. Cooling or warming of just one degree provides 48 hours of operation. Although that is the largest Atmos creation JLC, its power consumption is lower than that of watches!
