ahchard Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBombadil Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 How about this? Using a watch as a compass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omni Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share 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.

Happy T Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahchard Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share 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 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailadams Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailadams Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share 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!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craytonic Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share 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" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craytonic Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 n.b. - the tissot is digital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
