Sea-Gull proprietary flying wheel is located at 6. Sea-Gull researched and developed this type of “poor men’s tourbillon” flying wheel. According to Sea-Gull’s educational advertisement, mounted on the central axis is a flying wheel that has higher mass thus higher inertia. When the machine is running at higher speed, the flying wheel’s kinetic energy increases, absorbing and storing energy; when the machine is running at lower speed, the flying wheel’s kinetic energy decreases, releasing and distributing energy. Thus the flying wheel plays a role to stabilize the pace in the operating process.

Another point worth mentioning is the month does Not move forward by itself after 31 days. If it did it would be perpetual calendar movement costing much more. The month calendar has to be adjusted by pushing the recessed button on the left side once each month.
