Edelweisse Posted March 28, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 28, 2018 Hi Folks: I just picked this compass up but I don't know what it's for or what it goes to...I purchased this in a military thrift store. It is marked "MADE IN GERMANY" on the dial/face. It's a "floating" compass and you can see the degrees on the side....but I don't know anything about it. On the back it is marked "7.7." Any help would be appreciated Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edelweisse Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share #2 Posted March 29, 2018 The dial on the face rotates.....so you can align it.......but would this go in a vehicle, watercraft, or aircraft....I just don't know. Would it set inside something or ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edelweisse Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share #3 Posted March 29, 2018 Well ...I thought $3.92 for compass was OK....whatever kind it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darktide Posted April 20, 2018 Share #4 Posted April 20, 2018 I could be wrong but it looks very similar to a scuba compass. This would normally have a rubber boot with a cut-out that would allow the user to view the side reading function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
