The 4-1/2" Aquameter Gemini compass was originally manufactured by the Aquameter Compass Co. of New Jersey. Aquameter was sold to Rule Industries, the maker of Danforth compasses in the 1990's.The Gemini compass was updated and included in the Danforth Constellation line of instruments as the 4-1/2" Constellation Compass. The Gemini Compass is still very serviceable and most replacement parts are still available.



The standard overhaul on the Gemini compass is $225.00, which includes a new clear dome, gaskets, diaphram, bowl, oil ,repainting any painted parts and a two year warranty. Replacement parts to the lighting and return shipping are extra.
