  • Overview
    While we can use to great effect and marvel at the products of our digital age, there is still something substantial to be respected, acknowledged and said for analog and mechanical devices. The invention and introduction of the magnetic compass transformed the known world. Unreliant on batteries or circuit boards, a magnetic compass is the directional navigation tool in its most distilled and purest form. Our design process to create this modern classic drew inspiration from similar units as used and worn by UDTs, Combat Swimmers, Explorers and Adventurers from a different era. No less relevant today as it was yesterday, a compass that only needs the earth’s magnetic field to operate and is a tried and trued navigational device for anyone who spends time in the field.

    Best in class

    This is bar none the best wrist compass in the market. I collect antique to the modern wrist compasses and this is hands down the best. Most of the modern compasses are plastic cases that are known for breaking off the wrist bands. There is one out there that is supposed to be a machined case but has a cheap plastic domed crystal that pops out making it vulnerable to cracking and breaking exposing the tritium capsules within the compass. This is better engineered making it 10 times more Rugged and durable. The only thing that could make it better is if it had some tritium markers within it, but that would give the compass a 10yr life span. No complaints here.

    Watchband slot is too narrow

    My only complaint is the watchband slot is too narrow for my bands. Fantastic otherwise. Having owned several watchband compasses, this one is bar FAR the best quality. Make the slot bigger and it will be perfect.

    Hi Robert, thanks for your review. Are your bands spec'ed to 24mm?
