Marc Newson, world known and respected designer is no novice when it comes to designing time. Because of his love of design and his great interest in Jaeger-LeCoultres Atmos original clocks, Newson has redesigned the Atmos using his special talents and skills. Welcome Atmos 561, a special eightieth anniversary clock. The Atmos 561 resembles a clock for the future. Suspended inside a Baccarat crystal bubble block, the Atmos 561 is powered by changes in temperature allowing the clock to run for years without the need to wind it or change batteries. A perfect clock for those of us who tend to be quite forgetful. Inside the clear crystal capsule, a combination of gas and liquid ethyl chloride expands into the chamber as the temperature rises, which compresses the internal spring. As the temperature lowers, the spring slackens. Newson once again shows his brilliance in design.

水晶气泡里的时间【奇客】
马克•纽思恩, 这一世界上备受推崇的知名设计师，在设计时代俨然已非新手。由于他对于设计工作的热爱以及他对积家表原始空气钟的浓厚兴趣，纽思恩于是发挥他的杰出才能和技巧重新予以设计。欢迎Atmos 561，这是一款特别的80周年纪念闹钟。这款Atmos 561类似一款未来概念的闹钟。在Baccarat 的水晶气泡形钟壳包裹下，这款Atmos 561靠温度的变化提供支持钟表运作的能量，而无需采取上发条或更换电池的方式。这是一款为容易忘记时间的我们打造的完美闹钟。在这个清晰透明的壳子里，液氯乙烷和气体的混合物在气温上升时进入密闭容器，从而压缩内部的弹簧。在气温降低时，弹簧松弛。纽思恩再一次展示了他在设计上的杰出才华。
