It looks like a standard Lw Mutterkompass to me.
For comparison, here is a Lw Patin Mutterkompass from "Luftfahrtmuseum Hannover-Laatzen":

...and it is also listed here with mention of it being fitted to a diverse selection of Luftwaffe types. There are also images here with mention of it being fitted in a Bf109 and if you navigate down this page, you find a compass fitted within the fuselage of an Arado Ar96B...

The word "compass" may easily be misunderstood. In fact, it is the remote sensing unit for the main indicator unit.
