The Combat Ready Neck Compass is a 0.75 inch antique brass compass with fluorescent green glow markings and an OD green nylon lanyard.
Worn on a neck lanyard the compass is always accessible without opening a pack, which is what makes people check it often enough to stay on a bearing. Glow markings mean it still reads after dark once charged by daylight, without needing a light held on it.
Brass is the traditional compass case material because it is non-magnetic, so the body cannot deflect the needle the way a steel case would. At 0.75 inches this is a button-sized instrument for confirming general direction rather than walking a precise bearing, and it works best alongside a map and a baseplate compass.
