Vintage Royal Navy Nautical Sextant (by Henry Hughes Son Ltd. London)

A Rare vintage Royal Navy Nautical Sextant By Henry Hughes son ltd. It looks to be specifically made for the Royal Navy. I was told it was probably made/possibly used prior /during the World War 1 eraEarly 1900's. It is real fancy looking.

Looks to be brass with a wood handle and maker plaque on handle Henry Hughes Son LTD. It looks to have some tarnish on the brass parts here and there. The case is made of a nice colored wood(not sure what kind) looks like a couple pieces of dovetail on side corners as seen in pictures. The wood box is about 10" x 11" x 5 3/4. One corner of the box comes apart and needs to be pushed back in sometimes.
