Get the very best one you can afford. They last essentially forever. It's a one time, lifetime purchase. Just don't drop it!
The plastic sextant is a tempting, as it saves you money in the short run. It will not give you the satisfaction that a well crafted instrument provides. You will regret the plastic and lust after that beautiful metal. Absolutely guaranteed!
