Regardless of your means of conveyance, our most useful Miniature Brass Sextant will aid you on your personal journey around the world. Should you travel by steamer or railway, carriage or yacht, trading-vessel or sledge, this essential instrument will let you take a sight of the sun to determine your position line on an aeronautical or nautical chart.
Imported and made of fine brass, use of this mere 1 ½ inch sextant allows the deductive traveler to reach a conclusion (and final destination) through reasoning. Hook on your belt or rucksack with the handy attached carabiner keychain. Please note: must be treated with care, all optics and mirrors are fully operational (and breakable).
I bought this keychain for my boyfrind. It was just meant to be a trinket, and is definately worth it's price as that. As is stated, it is not meant to be a real sextant, and the mirrors weren't the best quality, but they're so tiny, it's barely notaceable. I thought it was absolutely adorable though, and am tempted to buy one for myself. :)

For the price you can't really complain. It isn't functional, and the telescope and mirrors were facing the wrong directions, but with a little screwdriver was able to remedy it. Very nice addition to a mini top hat. Though I think this keychain is hanging it upside down?

Beautiful little sextant, classy keychain. Mine's a bit "sticky" on the slide, but not too badly.

It looks the part, but isn't actually a functioning sextant - the horizon glass is just a small mirror.
