Prismatic Compass

[regiment739]

Hi all, I dont collect British gear normally but being a hill walker and ex military I just had to buy this compass. It is dated 1943 and has markings of a Mk 3 and was made in London and has a serial number with it. After all these years it still works as good as my Silva, dont know much about these so any info would be great

Thanks

Similar to the ww1 type these were manufactured by a number of company's it's a quality compass the one I have is 1917 dated works perfectly.
Can be expensive as well!

Thanks

Ben, what sort of info are you after? It pretty much speaks for itself I'd say.

I have a WWI type, simular. Also the leather case original strap pair buckles, factory stamped T. French & Son Ltd London 1916. Detail from almost a century ago, incredible.
