Click photo for larger images A British Army WW1 officers pocket watch style compass, engraved C Haseler & Son Ltd, Birmingham VI 1 5627 1918, along with the War Department military arrow on the lid. The full hunter case is in very good condition, retaining all its original nickel plating, and no dents. The original bevelled glass crystal is in fine condition, and covers an attractive jewelled pivot floating dial. In full working order, including the automatic transit lock, it measures 45mm diameter on the main body, and is a fine example of these charismatic WW1 compasses, which are becoming very scarce in such good condition.
