A Voyage Through History: The Old World Map Compass

A tribute to the golden age of exploration. This compass features a beautiful "Old World" map, complete with vintage sailing ships charting a course across the Atlantic. It's a classic, sophisticated piece that speaks of history, adventure, and the timeless call of the sea.

This is the perfect, distinguished gift for a Retirement, honoring a lifetime of navigation, or a classic Father's Day gift for the man who loves history and the ocean. It’s a timeless keepsake for any adventurer. Personalize the inside with your own handwritten note, a custom quote, or the coordinates of a meaningful place.

How to Personalize Your Compass:

After selecting your engraving options (1, 2, or 3 sides) and any gift add-ons from the menus above, it's time to personalize!

You can provide your details in two ways (see the fields above):

1. For Text & Fonts (Using the "Engraving Instructions" Box):

• Tell us exactly what you want to engrave and where (e.g., Front, Inside, Back, Pouch, or Box).
• Tell us your chosen font from the chart below.
• Example: Front: "Adventure Awaits" (Font F6 - Raleway) Inside: "John & Emily - 10.24.2025" (Font F12 - Great vibes)  Leather Pouch: "J.M." (Font F1 - CINZEL BOLD)

2. For Handwriting, Photos, or Logos (Using the "File Upload" Buttons):

• Use the "Front Side Image", "Inside Image", or "Wooden Box Image" buttons to upload your files.
• We can engrave your actual handwriting, a child's drawing, a photo, or a custom business/military logo.
• Handwriting Tip: For the best results, write your message clearly on a plain white (unlined) paper with a dark pen. Take a bright, clear photo (just like the example below) and upload it.
