Description:

This owl-shaped metronome provides a mechanical tempo reference for music practice and other musical work. Its printed scale includes tempo terms from Largo to Prestissimo, helping you select a marked range as you practise.

Wind it shortly before use, stopping when you feel resistance. The maker advises against storing it fully wound to extend the life of the main spring. After use, move the sliding weight to 200 before clipping the pendulum back into place.
