ahchard Posted March 31, 2006 Report Posted March 31, 2006 Hi... I am just looking for a watch with a compass... I know there are a few with a separate compass on the strap or on the side... but I am just wondering... is there a watch with compass in the dial itself?? Only one I can find so far is the Tissot T-touch... but I don't like the digital dial...
TomBombadil Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 How about this? Using a watch as a compass
omni Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 Wenger and Field & Stream both carry watches that have a flip up watch face to reveal a working field compass underneath. Timex has an eCompass watch for $80 that has a fourth hand that electronically points north. Although not digital it still is electronic run. Timex eCompass Watch
Happy T Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 There's a ton of digital ones but..... Did a quick search and found this Timex..... Timex Compass Edited to add: Did a little deeper search and found this Luminox Compass Watch . I like it!
ahchard Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Posted April 1, 2006 How about this? Using a watch as a compass That's pretty cool!!! someone mentioned it before and I had no idea how it worked... now this is excellent! I am in NZ...which is pretty far south of the equator... so it works well then!!! SWEET! no need for a new watch.... Thanks TomBombadil...
Lollipop Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 SWEET! no need for a new watch.... You can always buy an Arktos, it has a rotatable bezel with N/W/S/E markers.
sailadams Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 The Luminox compass watch is truly usable, if that's what you're looking for . Very thick however, makes Panerai look like a Piaget thin body, sort of a '60's [censored] Tracy omni-watch size.
sailadams Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 You can always buy an Arktos, it has a rotatable bezel with N/W/S/E markers. I guess you just kind of intuit the compass direction? (Har!)
Craytonic Posted April 1, 2006 Report Posted April 1, 2006 I think tissot makes a nice digital one w/ a compass and other cool functions... was featured in the movie "Mr. & Ms. Smith"
