Atmos 566 by Marc Newson

Atmos 566 by Marc Newson

ref. 5165102

Australian artist Marc Newson was delighted to once again work with Jaeger-LeCoultre on a design for the Atmos clock. Charmed by the magic of its complex mechanisms, he chose to give the Calibre Astronomique 566 a new appearance. The result is nothing short of incredible: the Atmos 566 by Marc Newson has a second skin of Baccarat crystal. The hours and minutes display surrounds a view of the night sky (as seen from the Northern Hemisphere), complete with cardinal points. The months and equation of time are displayed on a revolving disk at 12 o'clock. Fascinating from every angle, this clock transcends time and space, from the edge of infinity to the depth of the absolute.

The crystal case is the fruit of absolute mastery, perfection and hand craftsmanship. The design is one of true modernity and yet it transcends time and space.
