It’s not.

Like the Bugatti Royale, there are several of these *"things" (at least 450, maybe as many as 512). Still, like the Kellner car, it’s unique and has it’s own name.

No.

This specimen is in pristine condition, and it used to belong to the granddaughter of a very famous poet.

No, it has a function that exceeds the mere ornamental.

It is named after the aforementioned lady.

No. It’s a rather small thing that you could easily carry around (if you were able to lay your hands on it, which is extremely unlikelyLOL). It was sold on an online auction in 2011 for £9.8 million.

No, not a timepiece.

You need two hands to use it.

Yup! This one is one of the two best-preserved Stradivarius violins in existence.

A last hint:

Posterity will ne'er survey
A nobler grave than this:
Here lie the bones of Castlereagh:
Stop, traveller, and piss.
