Jaeger-LeCoultre 8-Day Pyramid Clock

Partially verified

The Jaeger-LeCoultre 8-Day Pyramid Clock is a table clock produced in the 1960s. The object features a pyramidal form, with a brass base finished in chrome-plated material and topped by an acrylic crystal pyramid. The black dial sits at the center, surrounded by a chrome-finished interior rehaut that incorporates wedge-style markers and Arabic numerals at the cardinal positions. It is operated by a manual-wind mechanical movement developed by Jaeger-LeCoultre, which provides an eight-day power reserve. The clock includes chrome-finished dauphine hands and is adjusted via a chrome-finished winding stem and key. Its dimensions are 8 inches by 7.4 inches by 5.25 inches. As noted by the source,

Object description

Design and Housing

The clock presents a distinct geometric silhouette, defined by its pyramidal construction. The housing is constructed from brass, which has been treated with a chrome plating. This structure supports a transparent acrylic crystal pyramid that encases the central time-telling elements. The base of the clock is designed with specific dimensions of 8 by 7.4 by 5.25 inches,

The dial assembly is situated within the base, featuring a monochromatic black surface. Surrounding this are index markers and Arabic numerals at the primary hour positions, integrated into a chrome-finished rehaut. The time is indicated by dauphine-style hands, which are also finished in a matching tone, consistent with the chrome aesthetic of the housing and the external winding mechanism.

Evidence for this section
  • “بدنه ساعت از جنس برنج با روکش کروم (chrome-plated brass) ساخته شده و بر روی آن یک کریستال اکریلیک هرمی‌شکل قرار گرفته است”
  • “صفحه ساعت به رنگ مشکی بوده و یک دور قاب داخلی (rehaut) کرومی با نشانگرهای گوه‌ای (wedge) و ارقام عربی در موقعیت‌های اصلی چهارگانه آن را احاطه کرده است”

Movement and Functionality

The mechanical heartbeat of the clock is a manual-wind movement proprietary to Jaeger-LeCoultre. The winding process is managed via a dedicated chrome-finished key and stem assembly located on the housing.

While the manufacturer is acknowledged for producing complex proprietary calibers for luxury timekeeping instruments, the specific technical documentation for this unit, such as the exact caliber identification or internal jewel count, is not disclosed in the provided source material. Furthermore, no internal inspection has been performed to verify the current functionality or previous service history of the movement.

Evidence for this section
  • “تأمین نیروی محرکه این ساعت بر عهده یک موتور مکانیکی کوک دستی اختصاصی ساخت Jaeger-LeCoultre با ذخیره انرژی ۸ روز است”
  • “کالیبر دقیق یا جزئیات سنگ‌های قیمتی موتور در متن منبع مشخص نشده است”

Provenance and Documentation

The object is associated with the 1960s, a decade noted by the source as the period of its production. The provenance of this specific object is described through its identification as a model from the Jaeger-LeCoultre range of eight-day clocks.

It is important to note that the provided documentation serves as a summary of the item's attributes. The source specifies that internal condition, the accuracy of the mechanical movement, and any historical servicing remain unconfirmed. Consequently, the information presented is based strictly on the provided specifications and manufacturer attribution.

Evidence for this section
  • “تاریخ ساخت این ساعت به دهه ۱۹۶۰ میلادی بازمی‌گردد”
  • “پلتفرم زمانیتو اصالت، سلامت فنی یا صحت ادعاهای مطرح‌شده را مستقلاً ارزیابی یا تأیید نمی‌کند”
