205 Minutes

Leontev's 205 Minutes is a masterpiece in both design and construction. So named because if you make one correct move per second, non stop, it will take you 205 minutes to disassemble. This n-ary juggernaut requires over 12 thousand moves to disassemble. Once disassembled, a reset mechanism allows you to quickly bring it to the original state with only four moves. It also comes with the 136 minute piece which only requires around 8,000 moves to solve.

It was a difficult decision to make this puzzle. It's so incredibly complex and requires so much precision that I thought about it for well over a year. In the end I'm glad we made it...some puzzles are so genius they just have to be realized.

I have had this on my shelf for too long and have come to admit that it is very unlikely that I will pick it up to solve again. It needs a new home where it will once again be in a solver's hands.

This copy did have minor internal damage that has been expertly repaired (see photo). Other than that it has some signs of use.

I will calculate the shipping price based on the winner's address. I only charge the exact shipping cost. There are no additional fees.
