artu44 Posted January 31, 2009 Share #1 Posted January 31, 2009 I've completed the set of the three different WWII Superior Magneto compasses. No date, 44 only, month plus 44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artu44 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted January 31, 2009 Thanks Craig, now you have to chase the 44 dtd one. I found this one in England advertised as dtd 43, but of course I did know what it was. Too bad I paid an incredibly sum for it, about 73$ shipped, and I had the surprise this morning to find that lens support is broken and lens missing.

craig_pickrall Posted January 31, 2009 Share #4 Posted January 31, 2009 I can see the damage in your pic now that you mention it. That is a shame. I'm sure the seller didn't bother to mention that, did he? I suspect it is tought to find repair parts. The only thing I know to do is find another compass that is cheap and use it for parts.

This is the only thing to do, maybe with a cheap post WWII. In those days UK ebay became a jungle. I returned an M3 bayonet scabbard repro seld as genuine and monday I'll return a fantasy Mills Orndorff belt with fake buckle. Few months ago brittons were more serious.
