The first few photos made that seem way smaller than it actually is.

Originally I thought it would work more like the RokBlok (https://rokblok.co) and just use a spring or something for power.

I think the word "pocket" and the fact that it looks like a pocket watch contribute to the confusing scale at first glance.

Wow, that reminds me of the soundwagon[0]. I always wanted one, but they are known as 'record/vinyl killers' as they essentially destory the record as it plays.
