You are looking at a very rare gyrocompass repeater that was patented March 4, 1919. The Sperry Gyroscope Company of New York made this item and it is labeled a Mark XV Mod.O. The casing and pedestal are brass and have a great patina. The face of the dial is black and white with the stylized rose pointing N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W and NW.
