How the Atmos Clock Functions
The ATMOS from Jaeger-LeCoultre is a unique mechanical clock. This pendulum clock has been available for purchase since the early 1930s and is still sold today—almost identical in construction—by JLC. The ATMOS clock uses the smallest temperature fluctuations to continuously generate energy and maintain a power reserve.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
The ATMOS from Jaeger-LeCoultre is a unique mechanical clock. This pendulum clock has been available for purchase since the early 1930s and is still sold today—almost identical in construction—by JLC. The ATMOS clock uses the smallest temperature fluctuations to continuously generate energy and maintain a power reserve. Behind the extremely smooth-running movement is a hermetically sealed pressure can filled with ethyl chloride, which reacts extremely sensitively to temperature fluctuations and thus generates movement via a metal bellows: if the temperature rises, the gas in the pressure can expands and vice versa. This pressure difference drives a mechanism that in turn winds the clock.
