For anyone interested; the clickspring youtube channel has been trying to recreate the mechanism and goes into detail about the parts and how they might have been made. Super interesting https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZioPDnFPNsHnyxfygxA0to4RXv4_jDU2&si=xnyuUso0fsS7Y2s-

Glad to get more confirmation, but i think we already knew it was an astrolabe device. Incredible incredible accuracy on the parts though

“…reveal new details about the calendar ring. They show that the ring is much more likely to have 354 holes, corresponding to the lunar calendar, than 365 holes, which would follow the Egyptian calendar.”

“…extensive set of probabilistic results, again suggesting that the ring most likely contains 354 or 355 holes in a radius circleUS 77.1mm, with an uncertainty of about 1/3mm. It also reveals that the holes are precisely positioned with extraordinary accuracy, with an average radial variation of just 0.028mm between each hole.”
