Amazing Compasses!
I bought 2 and replaced one compass with a thermometer…because I love having information that I’m not doing anything with. But man are these things cool.
A compass built for the toughest environments. We always wore a watchband compass during our military days as knowing where you are and where you're going is crucial to mission. We built a robust yet fashionable compass made from the highest grade materials. Made of a titanium housing that encases a precision luminous compass. This watch band compass is designed for 20-22mm NATO style straps. The compass has a screw in bezel ring that securely holds the compass in place. It can be removed by unscrewing with a paper clip or safety pin (in the event the compass needs replaced). We offer the FWBC in Bead Blasted or Black PVD coated Titanium. We chose titanium due to its strength to weight ratio.
****DOES NOT FIT ON TRIPLE AUGHT DESIGN STRAP. IT IS NOT A NATO STRAP.

As I stated, in a previous review, I own too many watchband compasses! I am now in possession of two BSS watchband compasses. One bead blasted, and one PVD coated. They are exactly what I have been searching for. I cannot think of a way to improve on this piece of kit?!
I never intended to have a collection of watch band compasses, but I have used so many different ones. I finally have the perfect watch band compass! Got the PVD black one… I will be ordering a bead blasted one soon!
Excellent quality and design. I attached it to the Titanium bracelet of my new Hazard 4 Heavy Water Diver watch by using the nylon cord method that you showed on your website. It worked and looks EXCELLENT! Great method because I own other Titanium compasses on my Luminox watches with nylon bands.
Paired this with my Resco SS Bullfrog and it really works. Complements the retro look I was going for, excellent build quality and finishing as well. Paired it with a small o-ring to keep it from sliding around the nato strap.
The new polished titanium matches the Resco titanium perfectly, very high quality, great customer service.
I had some shipping issues with my address but Black Scout worked with me and answered my many questions. And was able to get my compass and it’s the best watch compass out there for sure!
I have been looking for a button compass to put on my watch strap for years, and I finally found one that actually fits my needs. I tried Suunto and found that it ended up being incorrect and had to be thrown away. Other competitors are too large or not housed in a quality material for protection against hard use. I got a PVD black compass and replacement compass in case I break the crystal, and it matches my watch perfectly. It also holds direction well and I would trust it in the toughest conditions. Absolutely recommend.
I'm a K9 handler and working nights I can't use the light on my Garmin watch all the time or the compass function when I'm tracking suspects in woods and neighborhoods. The button compass really helps with on the fly direction when my dog is tracking. It's sturdy construction for sure my only gripe, and it's a small one, is the size. I have it manually tied to my Garmin Instinct 2 and it does stick out a bit. Also, when I light it up it doesn't stay bright for long. But for what I use it for, that's a good thing.
I slipped this on my casio protek. Its a tight fit to ensure it doesn't move. This is a perfect size for me.
