A friend of mine is selling off some things including a compass so I asked if I could borrow it to check it out. Turns out its a pretty decent still working waltham WW2 brass Compass.

i love old compasses.

I have many compasses and while I have the means to buy something off thecompassstore to quench my desire for a gentleman's pocket compass, I realize I would love it but I love dreaming about having one more.
