Nauticalia Brass Pocket Compass This is a basic, lidded, dry needle compass, in the style of those that preceded modern liquid-filled versions. Although it does work, and there is a lever to stop the needle swinging so that a bearing can be read, it is more ornamental than practical, making it an ideal gift for someone who loves the sea. • Diameter: 75mm • All brass (apart from the needle!)
