Maybe it has spikes on the inside to keep you from using too much pressure.

The Romera listing of tuba mouthpieces doesn’t list anything close to these dimensions:

Thank you very much for that photo!
But it is not the model the OP asks about. The Romera MC7 shown here has an unusual bulge(?) around the throat area, but no way close to the enormous dimensions of the mouthpiece on the OP’s photo.

I
think this is the mouthpiece in the photo, but maybe it's a larger version... or some kind of optical illusion.

The MC7 has a smooth profile from where the stem ends. Mr. Kim’s does not. The profile of the latter might suggest kind of an added weight like the ones available at some point of time for Denis Wick trumpet, cornet. horn, and trombone mouthpieces.
