As early as the 10th century, people carried portable sundials, the original timepiece. Pocket sundials were popular in colonial America. This handsome reproduction is solid etched brass. You can use it to tell time all over the world, from Buenos Aires to Tokyo, Dubai to Washington, DC. Simply point it north (with help from the built-in compass) and the brass bird’s shadow will indicate the time. 2" diameter.

This item has dings and dents, the embossed top "Pocket Sundial" fell off, the lid does not seat correctly, the hours ring (w/roman numerals)is warped, and the compass sticks -not accurate.
