The fake Atmos 568 is a replica of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos, the table clock known for running on small temperature and pressure changes instead of a battery or a wound spring. This guide walks through what the replica version actually delivers - the silhouette, the finish, the movement inside, and the practical details - so you know what arrives before you order.
Key Features

Materials and Specifications
The case is built from brass with gold-tone, rose-tone, or chrome plating, framed by tempered glass panels on the front, sides, and top. The dial is lacquer-finished with printed numerals and blued-steel style hands. Most 568 replicas run on a quiet quartz module hidden behind the dial, though some builds use a hand-wound mechanical movement for a closer feel to the original. Expect roughly two to three kilograms of weight and a footprint that clears most shelves and side tables. Check your shelf depth and clearance before ordering, and keep the clock out of direct sunlight and away from heavy vibration.
Shipping and Returns
Orders are packed in protective foam and sent with tracked delivery, and standard shipping is free. Most parcels leave the warehouse within a few days and arrive with the presentation box intact. If the clock is not right for you, unused items can be returned within the stated return window for an exchange or refund - keep the packaging and contact support first so the return can be logged.
How close is the fake Atmos 568 to the original?
From across a room, the proportions, glass panels, and dial layout read very close to the genuine Atmos. Up close, engraving depth, plating tone, and the movement behind the dial are where the differences show.
Does it really wind itself from temperature changes?
No. The genuine Atmos uses a sealed gas capsule, while the replica 568 is powered by a quartz module or a hand-wound movement. Treat it as a decorative clock rather than a perpetual-motion piece.
What should I check before ordering?
Confirm the finish you want, the shelf space you have, and whether the variant includes the moon disc or the plain seconds hand. If you are unsure, ask support for the current variant list before checkout.
