I got this for my husband for our 5 year anniversary and we were really pleased with the look and craftsmanship of both the box and the instrument.

Today I gave this to a long time coworker and friend who retired from the Navy some years ago after 23 years of service. Today he retired from his job as a contractor for the airforce.Review: The box was insanely nice, to express the look on his face when he saw just that was priceless, especially to me. When he looked at it and said "Its a Sextant" His face lit up and that to was priceless. When he opened and comment on how nice it well put together it felt. That to was priceless. My heart is full today, that man served his country for so many years and to see the smile this gift gave him let me know how appreciated he felt.Thank you for that.

I'm a really big pirate nerd (tons of books, movies, ect) and I collect nautical things, mostly pirate if I can get it. Always wanted to add a sextant to my collection and every one I've come across is either way expensive or really cheaply made (sometimes both). The craftsmanship to price ratio is pretty solid and it looks really great in my collection.

This works adequately for my purpose. Everything(filters and lenses) all lined up as I perceived them to. The box provided Oohs and Ahs from my H.S. World History class during a lesson on Navigating part of "Age of discovery". As we "sailed" the campus to locate where we were in the world, Students were excited to use a tool they had studied. This delivered for that purpose. Accuracy, well used by a bunch of landlubbing rookies, Who didn't use all of realistic adjustments(such as refraction), we did place ourselves app. 3-5 degrees from the true latitude. They were impressed.The Good: Looks great, if going to use for decoration this is perfect. Yes it is functional but you get what you pay for. I wouldn't use this to depend too heavily on for real life navigation.The Bad: Maybe a little darker filter to shade from the sun when using the sun as the celestial body.

Used as an accent piece on a custom Murphy Bookcase. Makes a great conversation piece. This item also is completely functional. Recommended to be purchased with Sextant manual.

We bought this as a wedding gift. The couple loved it! Some online purchases turn out nothing like their photos, but this one certainly did. It's well crafted and elegant with an air of antiquity.
