You will find that the Atmos clock is 'powered' by changes in atmospheric 
pressure if you care to check your facts.  That's what the bellows is for. 

*Obvious* external power sources, even though interesting, don't fall into the 
'come close' category for perpetual motion gadgets.  You need at least a little 
bit of trickery or deception.
