Advertised on eBay as a fishing reel and purchased by my fisherman FIL as a curiosity because he's certain it isn't one. Gemini thinks it might be some kind of specialized mechanical winding device used for surveying in a maritime or electrical capacity but offered no citations. No markings or manufacturer plates.
