We were very fortunate to have Irhomdeys to accompany us to the gallery to inspect the clock before


 An article in the ‘Revolution’ magazine on the Atmospheric Clock in early April this year caught our attention. I never had the prior pleasure of seeing the Atmos what more owning a unit. We did not pursue the matter further because as it is there are already too many clocks in the collections for comfort.
A couple of weeks later we were at a shopping mall in Petaling Jaya walking towards one of our favourite Nasi Padang restaurants. As we were casually strolling along to the restaurant, we noticed a gallery displaying all these vintage stuff and some old clocks including north shore lij labs one piece that looked very extraordinary.  north shore lij labs
Lots of antique stuff including unique wall clocks but we were keener to have a thorough look at that mantle north shore lij labs piece that caught our eyes and brought us into the gallery. north shore lij labs He obliged us by taking out the clock from the display cabinet and show us how the clock worked. According to him, the clock is an Atmospheric clock that runs on atmospheric north shore lij labs pressure. It needs no winding or battery. It has no chimes and runs beautifully smooth. 
We north shore lij labs probed for more information including the accuracy and the after sales service. Bear in mind this is not an ordinary clock that we deal every day and needs lots of thick fat dough too to bring it home. He assured us that the clock is in superb working condition after full service upon securing north shore lij labs from overseas.
The Atmos clock movement devised by French engineer Jean-Leon Reutter is powered by changes in ambient temperature. A hermetically sealed, gas-filled capsule acts as the agent that winds the clock's mainspring by expanding and contracting when the temperature rises and falls respectively, north shore lij labs and a shift of a single degree centigrade is all it takes to power the clock for 48 hours.
Its massive balance, a torsion pendulum, oscillates twice every minute, significantly reducing consumption, while energy loss as a result of friction is also minimised, thanks to its gear construction which is so perfect that it does not even need lubrication.
Back home, we asked some reliable friends in the horology business. Most of them discouraged us   pursuing further with the clock. According to them, no one in Ipoh is capable north shore lij labs of servicing the clock in case of any eventuality.
We were very fortunate to have Irhomdeys to accompany us to the gallery to inspect the clock before collection as he was just as curious to have a look at this real beau. When comes to vintage north shore lij labs clocks and watches, north shore lij labs I must say, he is the most knowledgeable and authoritative of all the Malaysian watch and clock bloggers
