Antique 18th Century French Nicolas Bion Brass Pocket Compass Sundial

DEMONSTRATIVE JEWELED 8 DAY FUSE. 1715 NICOLAS BION COMPASS DIRECTION SUNDIAL. This is a rare sundial you just don't see very often.

I believe it's made in France between 1675 and 1715 by Nicolas Bion. And his name is engraved on the surface of this sundial. I don't really know anything about sundials, so I'm describing from what I see.

On the front of the dial, there are several sets of Roman numerals. I'm sure they are for you to tell the time.

You will also see a compass, which helps you to determine the direction. On the reverse side, you will see a list of cities' name with a number following them. All winding clocks come with their key. All item will be carefully packed with real packing material, bubble wrap, Styrofoam, foam peanut, & NO newspaper. FEEDBACK: Your feedback is very important to us.
