Compass Watch - any good?

Kandipandi

Its my DH's Birthday next month and he always wanted a compass watch. I have found this one:

I dont want to pay a fortune for it (definately less than £100).
Can anyone tell me if they are any good or if you know of any others that are any good. I want one where the compass actually works. I know nothing about them and dont want to wase my money.

Thanks in advance guys any feedback appreciated.:)

I have a couple of Timex compass watches and I'm very happy with them- don't expect pinpoint compass accuracy though. They're digital ones though, so less than half the price (try Amazon or Argos) of this one. Mind you, this one looks really smart so I wouldn't mind having this one too!- if only it wasn't so expensive...

Looks nice - but looks expensive - Tesco do emfor £15.00. But they don't look as nice!

If so it is a tad cheaper

Thanks guys - I did want a one with a needle rather than a digi display. It does not have to be pinpoint accurate either.
Tightuswad - i love that price of that one, but Globalds - i like the look of that one!
I think i might go ahead with that one Globalds as Jezza has tried timex and is happy with them.
Im totally clueless so thanks very much for your feedback guys. :beer:
