    Re: H. Hughes and son sextant pat 491

    Hello, Sam.

    Responses have rather drifted away from your original question about servicing. Does your "pattern 491 look anything like this one? https://sextantbook.com/2018/02/14/hughes-and-son-admiralty-pattern-micrometer

    If so, I would be happy to guide you through servicing it by e-mail, or I could (modestly) recommend the book as a guide. I have sometimes servced/repaired sextants for others who are "all thumbs", for the cost of the return postage, but am not touting for custom...
