Luftwaffe Nav Instruments

Going through history book of 3.(F)/121 I saw these
photos depicting two types of Sextants used from 1942 on.

What are the major accuracy charactertics between both, aircraft
types operational application and difference between those
used by RAF and AAC on their bombers and transport aircraft .
I think Sperry came up with similar development by 1943.
