An old dry compass from the late 19th or early 20th century (estimated). 
Unfortunately I’ve not been able to find out who the maker of the compass is. The connoisseur will undoubtedly know.
The compass map is easy to read with English indication of the wind directions. 
The compass hangs in a gimbal suspension in a wooden box. 
It has been on an old steam tug since 1946. 
The compass still indicates the direction well. 
Photos are part of the description.

The compass will be very well packaged and shipped insured and registered with track & trace code.
