THE COMPASS ATTACHMENT ITSELF IS A VERY COOL LOOKING THING. IT IS A CHROME HOUSING THAT SLIPS ONTO THE LIGHTERS MAIN BODY.

THE COMPASS SITS BETWEEN THE ZIPPO AND THE SLIP ON ATTACHMENT AND IS HELD IN PLACE BY A BRASS, FLIP DOWN BAR SYSTEM. THE BRASS BAR LEVERS FORWARD (TOWARD THE USER) WHICH ALLOWS THE COMPASS TO BE TAKEN OUT WHILST THE HOUSING IS STILL SLIPPED ONTO THE ZIPPO.

THE NEEDLE WOBBLES AN MOVES BUT IT IS NOT IN FULL WORKING ORDER - ITS A SHOWPIECE.
ITS A VERY IMPRESSIVE LOOKING ZIPPO AND RARE ATTACHMENT AND IS IN UNUSED EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ALL ORIGINAL PACKAGING AND PAPERWORK.
DATED JANUARY 1994 (A - X) THE ZIPPO STILL HAS IT PROTECTIVE PLASTIC SLEEVE I LEFT IT IN FOR DISPLAY
PLEASE NOTE: IN THE PHOTOS THE LIGHTER STILL HAS A PLASTIC WRAPPER ON IT.
I DECIDED NOT TO ATTACH THE COMPASS SYSTEM ONTO THE ZIPPO AS I DIDN'T WANT TO SCRATCH THE LIGHTER 👍. I DISPLAYED IT WITH THE TIN LID OPEN TO SEE THE PIECES LAYING NEXT TO EACH OTHER. ...SO I HAVE RESISTED THE URGE TO PLACE IT ON FOR THE PHOTOS.
YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A VERY UNIQUE ZIPPO - I ALMOST DIDNT SELL THIS ONE, I ONLY HAVE THIS ONE.
