117.           $400

LeCoultre Atmospheric clock, new or near new, in a bright gold case that is almost 9 ¼ inches high and 8 ¼ inches wide. The dial is signed, “LeCoultre / Made In Switzerland”. I have sold a great many Atmos clocks but have never had one this clean and bright inside and outside.  A lever front bottom frees the pendulum to turn. As most of you know the clock is perpetual running and wound automatically by changes in temperature and pressure. The LeCoultre PR Dept.  says, “The Atmos, the clock that lives on air. The only clock of its kind in the world. The constant changes in the temperature of the air are enough to keep it permanently wound”. The clock is running. Our estimate $500-$750.
