The Atmos clock is one of the closest inventions to pure perpetual motion. The power is created by the elements of the room. A one degree temperature variation will cause enough expansion and contraction in the bellows to provide two days running time. The bellows contain a combination of liquid and gas. The reliability is perpetual, the pendulum continues to rotate on the mantle for decades.

Truly fascinating. Curts Clocks. The other clock that I think is interesting is the Corpus Clock and Chronophage in Cambridge, England.
