I do not know the age of this, but I did obtain it from an elderly estate. I am not an expert on watch fobs, so I will try to describe it the best I can. Please see the photos for more detail and contact me if you have any questions. Sorry my camera doesn't take the best close up pictures. It is silver in color. I do not know what kind of metal it is made of, but a magnet does not attract it. Only on the bottom part of the hook. There is a mark on the hook part of the chain. It appears to be what I believe to be a shark, but it is hard to tell. The total length measures approximately 5 3/4" long, from the top of the hook to the tip of the compass. The compass diameter measures approximately 1 1/4" from tip to tip. You can read the directions from both sides of the compass, but they are not lined up the same. I don't know why. Where the N for north should be, there is what appears to be an O+C instead. The SW on one side is almost worn off. The compass does seem to work, but I am not sure if it is showing the correct direction all the time. I have not cleaned this, I will leave that up to the buyer. There are wear marks and tarnishing on some areas of the hook, chain and compass metal. There are also some scratches on the glass face of the compass, but are hard to see without a magnifying glass. Overall, I think this is a really a nice piece and in good condition for its age. Please Note: Payment is expected within 3 days. Insurance can be available as an option if you want it. I will include Delivery Confirmation, but if not insured I cannot be responsible for an item once it has been shipped. Thanks for looking at my auction!   Place a Bid!
