Comments about COMPASS NECKLACE:

I absolutely adore this necklace - wanted it for like a year, and finally got it for a gift. I just wish it didn't tarnish so easily and be so hard to remove - that is by far my biggest complaint. But I love it and it means a lot to me - would be a great gift for the unique, or just to give a gift with implied meaning.

Comments about COMPASS NECKLACE:

Loved this necklace! Well, I love the compass pendant, the actual necklace, not so much. I was worried after reading some reviews that my compass would not function properly as a compass, due to size or air bubbles. I am happy to say my compass has no functioning problems! No air bubbles, and it points to what I'm pretty sure is North every time! The chain is a different story. It is a long, sterling keyring chain essentially. And when I tried to open it the first time, the clasp part that holds the little ball in place totally bent in half. No matter though, I'll use a different chain. I didn't buy it for the chain. I think the compass was still worth the money for its size, function and quality. I can't wait to get lost in the woods!

mixed opinion
By sueVerified Buyer from Gardner, KS on 6/7/2009
Gift:
No
Pros:
Good Length, Meaningful, Unique
Cons:
Chain looks a bit cheap
Best Uses:
Everyday
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about COMPASS NECKLACE:

I think this neclace is unusual and this is good in my book. Also, the length is just right. But The chain is so much like a cheap item that you would give to a very young child. It is silver and good quality but gives the appearance of something very cheap. I think the price is too high for this look.

Comments about COMPASS NECKLACE:

I bought this for my best friend who had recently come back from a whirlwind tour of Europe. She loved it and wears it often. We were surprised, though, at the length--it is a little longer than expected on her neck. If you're looking for a gift that is unique, stylish and sentimental, this is a great one to consider.

Comments about COMPASS NECKLACE:

I got this necklace 5 years ago for my birthday from my father and I literally wear it every day except during very formal occasions. It's about the size of a nickel, which actually makes it a great size to wear all the time. After a few years, it gets hard to polish the silver in the little grove in the silver mount. The glass hasn't scratched in this amount of time, either (and I've had some tough jobs). It's a great conversation piece that always gets compliments from people who haven't seen it before. The only downside on mine, is that you have to shake it to break up the big air into lots of tiny ones in order for it to point north. Otherwise, it points whatever direction you want it to. I have used it for general directions before (for example: lost in the car and need to know if I'm headed East or West and it's Mid-day).

All-in-all, I love this necklace! My friends and family don't buy any necklaces for me now because they know I won't take this one off to wear a new one.
