Atmos clock - Jaeger-LeCoultre - Chrome-plated brass - 1960-1970

Fine and rare, artist-signed LeCoultre Atmos V, model CHINOISE (Marina), depicting a Chinese landscape. According to LeCoultre documentation, the watch was offered from 1963 to 1975 under the name Models Plexi Grave in four different motifs and two colors. Ref. 5805, in white. The artist named Marina developed a special technique of engraving and coloring hollows into the plastic block, creating a three-dimensional representation when viewed from the front. Here is a Chinese landscape. It is often mistakenly and widely believed that Marina always features maritime motifs. The Plexiglas plates, except for the roof plate, are all hand-engraved and finished with gold color. Each watch is therefore a unique piece. Most of this type of watch in Plexiglas shows slight tension cracks, but this one is barely visible. Caliber 526. Excellent condition. Comes with a one-year warranty.
