Richie Pilot-Cruise Master Series Boat Compass

Description

Richie Pilot-Cruise Master Series Boat Compass
I called Richie, they said it was make in the mid-60’s,
high quality compass, has some air in top that can be serviced, however they said it will not effect the accuracy or shipability of the compass. They said its comparable to a 0-0. Model compass today in todays dollars. It originally sold in 1964 for ~.00. in 1960 is equivalent in purchasing power to about 0.23 today, an increase of 0.23 over 61 years.
I bought it from an antique dealer thinking it would look good on my boat, but my boat is small, and it takes up to much room on my helm.
It’s a cool compass.
Diameter without the wood base is 6.75”
Height 6.75”
