What is an Atmos Clock?

Atmos clocks are also called torsion clocks or anniversary clocks although Atmos is the given name by Jaeger-LeCoultre. They are clocks which work under the perpetual motion theory meaning they hypothetically run forever. They work from a contraction and expansion of bellows in the rear casing which automatically winds the spring in the main movement allowing it to run continuously without any winding or given power.
