FWIW, had a bubble in my Ritchie compass in 2002, twenty years ago and a local 
guy (in NJ) who works on those, cleaned it, topped off the fluid and replaced 
the seal for $75.  Still good, no bubble.
 
I would google "Ritchie repair near me" or "compass repair near me" to see if 
someone may be at hand.

Hey Shawn,
I just got mine back on Friday from Richie, it looks awesome.
Send Pat an email, include a few images and he'll get back to you and let
you know if it's repairable. Mine cost 350 USD. It was a 5” Globemaster.
Cost included return shipping.   pdemp...@ritchienavigation.com

I missed see who did the repair but I got great service and spare parts from 
Viking Compass.

I had Calypso’s main steering compass base repaired and rechromed. Viking 
updated the compensation magnets making the original base like new. (I 
considered the cost a good value but it wasn’t cheap.)

You are lucky you are going to Buffalo, a friend of mine is stuck for 3
weeks at Brewertons, just out of Onida (a nice layover) as a bridge is out

Stus-List Ritchie Compass Repair

2023-05-30 Thread Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List 
The good news: Not only is my leak fixed, I think they just sent me a new 
compass. I cannot identify any part that doesn't look brand new. If it lasts 
another 50 years I will be happy.
The ??? news: The light is green instead of red. I am not sure I like this, I 
will have to see how it goes.
The bad news: I am not 100% sure it will mount without some effort, It is not 
obvious if it has the same screw holes.
