Medieval brass nocturnal

Ladies and gentlemen, step forward and behold this masterpiece of medieval craftsmanship: a nocturnal made of the finest brass, which is not only able to read the stars of the night sky, but also to calculate the tides of the sea. With a diameter of six centimeters and a weight of seventy grams, this medieval star clock is of considerable substance, yet light enough to serve as a faithful companion on all your travels.
Communicating with the fixed stars of the northern hemisphere in the dark of night, this nocturnal reveals time in its truest form. On its back you will find a historical calculator that tells you the high tide times at any location. Worn as a piece of jewelry, it will attract attention and complement your medieval garb in the most excellent way.
Encased in a box made of natural cork and accompanied by instructions in the languages of the scholars and the people, this nocturnal is a formidable gift for all those who are passionate about the mysteries of the firmament and the rhythms of nature.
But be warned, noble travelers: Its power extends only over the vastness of the northern hemisphere. So take this sign of time and the tides and let the stars be your guide.
