Original Kriegsmarine Sold Libellensextant ww2

C. Plath Kriegsmarine Sold Libellensextant original 2wk

An extremely rare collector's item of the Kriegsmarine

The Sold Libellensextant of the Luftwaffe is more widespread. Few know that there was also a version for the Kriegsmarine. And this copy returns to its country of origin after more than 70 years. Retrieved from the United States, where it was brought in 1947 by a GI. The bring-back letter is included!

This rare piece comes with all spare parts, such as charger with rechargeable batteries and replacement bulbs. In the original metal transport and storage box. This is a bit dented, but in top condition. Marked with manufacturer, C. Plath, Hamburg, device number KM 2-1, serial number 3203. Tested by the Deutsche Seewarte. Sextant is denazified and on the box the plate is missing.

Electrics not tested. All other functions work perfectly!

In contrast to conventional sextants the sold Dragonfly Extender delivered at least one result in unfavorable weather conditions, although not necessarily correct. But sometimes an inaccurate result is better than none!

I am pleased to be able to offer you this extraordinary collector's item.
