Default Old Junker?

Joe,

What you have is an interesting piece.

If it was not much money - that is nice.

If you are asking should you take it to sea and count on the results?
I would have reservations.

I do not see any calibration table in the case.
Having a sextant is not the only requirement.
Are you already a celestial navigator?

Yes, the mirror can be replaced, but why.

If it were mine, I would get a plexi cover cut so it could be open and
not require dusting.
