Commodore Compass in Hardwood Base | 
main
| | | Recognize completion of service with an especially distinctive gift. The Commodore has no equal in a desktop compass. Made of the highest quality brass, copper, and bronze in the U.S.A., it is a full-size example of the traditional box compass in use during the 1800s and early 1900s. In fact, this model has been in continuous production, with few changes, since 1907. Because the compass is liquid-filled, the card is dampened and extremely steady. The traditional 32-point card has an outer ring graduated in degrees. Accuracy is assured by a strong sensor magnet, and sensitivity by the use of a sapphire jewel and hardened steel pivot.
For someone stepping up or stepping down, the Commodore is an especially appropriate reward for a steady hand on the helm. The low profile of this model makes it ideal for smaller display areas in a home or office. The Commodore sits securely in a hardwood base with mahogany finish.
Shown with optional engravable brass plate (1" x 3"). Call for pricing.
