<HTML>The sextant or compass made by a company like PLANTH are still in business today and still make these devices that look like their WWII counterpart , or look like it to the untrained eye. The reproduction is in the eagle with the M and the swastika , this today is easily done with photo etching etc. Maker marks and stamps are very easy to reproduce today.</HTML>
