Thanks for the URL Jim, What an amazing piece of technology! Stunning. I’d love to see a large version, about 30 cm in diameter so that the inner guts are easier to see. It’s certainly a tribute to modern machining and manufacturing. It makes the Apple watches look like a piece of disposable plastic.
I was so impressed that I was getting ready to sell my two wonderful grand-kids into white slavery to cover a cheque to buy one. But then I realised that it only has the celestial chart for the Northern Hemisphere. Not much use here in Sydney, so it looks like my grand-kids are safe for a while longer.
