AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

2 old liquid compasses. Neither is usable in its current condition.
Both need servicing. The Bergen Nautic compass is dry, and the large compass is only half-filled with liquid.
They can probably be repaired or perhaps used for parts.
Diameter: large compass 18.5 cm. Small compass 13.5 cm.
Photos form part of the description.

The compasses will be very carefully packed and sent insured and registered, with a track-and-trace code.
Also take a look at my other lots and save on shipping costs if possible.
Will not be shipped to the United States.
