West Marine Hand Bearing Compass

Self-Illuminated with Tritium H3

Made by YES in England. *

This hand-bearing compass was made in Crowthorne Beeks, England, by Yachting Electronic Services. It is self-illuminated with Tritium H3, which is ever so slightly radioactive, but glows on its own without batteries or any need to recharge. It measures about 3.75" long, 2" wide at the wide end, and 1.25" tall (including the blue wrap).

The Tritium H3 was provided by and through Saunders Roe Displays in Winston Salem, NC.

It is made of sturdy heavy duty acrylic and wrapped in sturdy, cushiony blue rubbery protection. It is meant to be worn around the neck and can stand up to taking some hard knocks.

Google has absolutely failed me. I have been unable to find a single similar triangular compass on the whole Internet. Yet, it was originally sold by West Marine, so you can trust that it is a quality piece that will serve well.

International Buyers – Please Note:

Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. I will include an invoice for Customs. I will mark the Customs form 'other/ebay/'actual item description)' and put the actual auction ending price. You may be required to pay customs fees and should consider this part of your final cost.

"Expedited Shipping" is what Ebay calls USPS Priority Mail. The average delivery time for Priority Mail is 2-3 business days, but it may take longer, especially during adverse weather events. Ebay's "Expedited Shipping" is not the same as the USPS Express/Overnight Shipping. If you Absolutely Positively Have To Have It Overnight, I can try to arrange that, but the prices are extremely high and your address may still fall outside the overnight delivery area for your local post office.

I always ship within 1 business day whenever physically possible. After that, it's up to the Post Office. I hope you understand.

I ship the next business day after receiving payment, please do me the courtesy of paying promptly too!

Shipping cost inside the US includes USPS First Class postage based on distance from zip code 98034, Delivery Confirmation, and a very small materials and handling fee which may include insurance upon request or as merited. Postage for international and APO addresses will be calculated individually. Please contact seller to calculate non-US shipping.

Washington buyers will be charged Sales Tax based on your zip code. Please contact me after auction end so I can send a personalized invoice.

Returns not allowed unless item not as described. Item must be postmarked within 14 days and returned in condition received.

I am always delighted to combine shipping on multiple items, so be sure to check my other auctions.

Peter Stevens and Julian Thomson lead a discussion on the past, present and future of car design

Fri, 24 May 2013

As part of its sponsorship of London's Clerkenwell Design Week, Jaguar and the Royal College of Art brought together three generations of the design school to discuss the past, present and possible future of car design. Held in a suitably grimy warehouse in east London – with the sculpture by RCA students Ewan Gallimore and Claire Mille's we showed you earlier this week sat outside – Professor Dale Harrow, dean of the School of Design and head of its Vehicle Design program introduced Professor Peter Stevens, Julian Thomson, Jaguar's advanced design director and Alexandra Palmowski project designer advanced colour and material at Jaguar took the audience through their careers. Charismatic as ever, Peter Stevens kicked off proceedings that moved chronologically through the decades by explaining how he first became interested in "the art if car design, allied to the science of how they work" through his artistic parents and uncle – journalist and motoring adventurer – Denis Jenkinson during the 1950s and 60s.

One Lap of the Web: Antarctic hot rods, Nissan BE-1 for sale and parting with a beloved Wagoneer

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

-- Here's yet another gem we first saw over at Hemmings: The first, and (so far as we know) only Antarctic hot rod ever built. It might be from 1968-'71; not much else is known, except that it was probably constructed by Navy SeaBees operating out of McMurdo Station. From the one photo we have, it looks like it could have a Jeep flathead four up front.
