An offset selector for determining an offset between an anchoring section and a joint section of a joint implant component, the offset being defined by a distance and an orientation, the selector comprising:
- a reference portion for determining the offset, wherein the reference portion comprises a tool interface configured to engage a tool,
- a first adjustment device to adjust the distance, wherein the first adjustment device comprises two bodies movable in relation to each other, wherein the first body is mounted to a pivot axis for being pivotable relative to the second body, and wherein a central axis of the tool interface is offset from the pivot axis, and
- a second adjustment device to adjust the orientation relative to the reference portion,
- wherein the first adjustment device and the second adjustment device are coupled to each other, one of the first adjustment device and the second adjustment device is connected to the reference portion and the other one of the first adjustment device and the second adjustment device is connected to an adjustment portion, the adjustment portion being movable relative to the reference portion by the distance adjustable via the first adjustment device or by the orientation adjustable via the second adjustment device.
