Substantial weight in the hands. It looks like an elegant museum artifact sitting on my walnut desk, and everyone who visits tries to solve it.
One of the finest mechanical puzzles in my entire 15-year collection. Impeccable craftsmanship and gorgeous unboxing experience.
Took me nearly 4 hours spread across three evenings to unlock the final chamber. An absolute masterwork of sequential discovery.
