Military blackened brass pocket sextant
with makers initials H.B., which I believe stands for Hall Brothers.
I suspect it dates to WW2, it has the military arrow and the number B.1616,
and is in almost mint condition with barely any loss of the black coating.
The mirrors and filter are in excellent condition. The knurled adjustment
knobs appear to be made of stainless steel or nickel plate. Measures 7cm
dia x 4cm closed depth. No case available.
