Ya know, sextants have had batteries for decades. Very high quality digital watches have been available for small change for decades. Greg, your photo with that watch wrapped around the scope on your sextant (a very clever idea!) made me wonder why no one ever built a simple water-resistant digital watch into a sextant handle. And maybe a basic calculator, too... And a GPS receiver!
