PDW1040613: Expedition Watch Band Compass Kit 2.0 - Matte

Prometheus Design Werx

While we can use it to great effect and marvel at the products of our digital age, there is still something substantial to be respected, acknowledged, and said for analog and mechanical devices. The invention and introduction of the magnetic compass transformed the known world. Unreliant on batteries or circuit boards, a magnetic compass is the directional navigation tool in its most distilled and purest form. PDW's design process to create this modern classic drew inspiration from similar units used and worn by UDTs, Combat Swimmers, Explorers, and Adventurers from different eras. No less relevant today as it was yesterday, a compass that only needs the earth's magnetic field to operate and is a tried and trued navigational device for anyone who spends time in the field.

The original and the best, this updated Expedition Watch Band Compass Kit 2.0 was created for the modern explorer and adventurer. A best-grade, personal navigation tool, to get you there and back again to tell the tale.

Precision-made in aerospace grade titanium, a personal navigation device designed for all terrains.

Another significant update is the ability to change out the compass element effortlessly and without any tools. Swap out button compasses as needed, or for the optional thermometer. Easy to swap out with compass at will. No tools are required.

The split back design allows for the mounting of these to closed-loop type watch bands like the Marine Nationale Para variety. And of course, these will slide over your standard NATO-type bands as well.

In addition to compatibility with a number of nylon-centric watch bands, the Expedition Watch Band Compass Kit 2.0 now also includes all 4 colors of silicone carriers. Change out the differently colored carriers to your liking or needs. The gray, OD green, and orange feature UV inhibitors to prevent fading and the 4th is glow-in-the-dark.

The EWBCK 2.0 is your first and last piece of personal nav equipment. Compact and easily worn on NATO and MN Para-type watch bands, or on your equipment with the included silicone carriers. Always know your heading, in any environment. The design process to create this modern classic drew inspiration from similar compass units used and worn by UDTs, Combat Swimmers, Explorers, and Adventurers from different eras. No batteries are required, ever. 

These can be girth hitched to your pack's webbing straps, D-rings, sternum straps, and more.
