This gyroscope is operated by pulling string, easy to master and play good even for a 9-year-old. It's made by fine material with fine craftsmanship (its maker is a watchmaker; watchmaker usually make things with precision) and all the efforts give it perfect balance, robustness and fancy appearance.
Once master how to play, it's easy to make it spin for 7-15 minutes on hard and smooth surface like glass or ceramic tile with flat surface; if keep it from edges, 20-25 minutes is possible. And what's more, this one can stand on almost all kinds of surfaces (like any other gyroscopes). You can play it anytime, anywhere. This is a great time killer, a wonderful conversation piece.
Note: at first you may find the tip of the shaft slightly off-center. Don't worry, after times of spinning, it will be perfectly centered.
It will be a wonderful gift for adult or for young.

- ★LONG SPINNING TIME: This spinning top can stand on almost all kinds of surfaces. It can last about 7-15 minutes on hard and smooth surface, 3-5 minutes on soft surface. Initial rotation speed of this one is about 8000 RPM.
- ★NICE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND MATERIAL: Body of the spinning top is high precision CNC machined from a solid piece of 303 Stainless Steel. This gives it perfect balance and robustness. Shaft is made by High Speed Steel with high hardness and abrasion resistance.
- ★GREAT TIME KILLER: My former colleague who's in charge of this product line was fired because he spent too much time on spinning and timing.
