compass refurbishing

Thanks for that. I had no idea it could be that pricey.

The only place I'm aware that has restored antique compasses is Viking in Boston. They specialize in Richie but can do others. Expect prices to range from $600-2200 depending on if you want it working, lighter, displayed, etc.

I have an old pilot house compass with the bottom panel for lighting. The liquid has become opaque and I would like to have the whole thing renewed. Does anybody have any experience or suggestions for a vendor who reconditions these? It's from the Donner.
