The compass is complete with a working travel hold button, and a gorgeous mother of pearl rotating dial, bearing a superb characterful hand painted compass rose with half negative design. The barometer is compensated aneroid example with extremely fine, high quality and charming paint, working outer pressure ring and freely moving needle – though it may not be accurate. One to one side, one to the other – they unscrew to separate if needed.
