The Iconic Dalvey Compass
- Re-imagined

We’ve been working for some time to introduce what we consider to be the finest
compasses we’ve ever made. We’re now very excited to be launching what’s been
dubbed, internally, the apotheosis of the Dalvey Compass.

Director

We’ve combined vibrant, intricate, luxury-watch-standard dials with mirror-polished, precision-engineered stainless steel casings and liquid-filled compasses to produce an exceptional collection of unique and varied characters.

Ideally suited to gifting occasions, the Voyager Compasses come in beautiful presentation packaging. The deep-engraved badges - unparalleled richness and clarity - are designed to be engraved with initials and dates, while the stainless steel case can be engraved with a personal message.

An engraved Dalvey Compass will be kept and warmly appreciated for years - as a meaningful token, and an enduring gesture.

Dalvey Compass | Accept no imitations

Dalvey Compasses are recognised around the world, our brand synonymous with quality and integrity. We first launched the Dalvey compass over 25 years ago and have continued to innovate since then. The Dalvey Compass is now a recognised design classic and of course like many trend setters, widely copied despite our best efforts.

Don’t be miss-led by the numerous inferior Dalvey ‘style’ compasses available on the market - accept no imitations.

ALASDAIR MÓR GRANT The Chief of Grants Champion

Dalvey is a family company, owned and run by Sir Patrick Grant and his sons, Neil and Duncan.

The historic territory of Clan Grant is Strathspey: our motto, “Stand Fast, Craigellachie”, makes reference to the mountain that looms over much of the strath, and from which great fires were lit to muster clansmen for battle. In fact our name, Dalvey, refers to the territory owned by our branch of the clan back in the 17th century.

The Perfect Wedding Gift

Eminently suitable for birthdays, Christmas, Father’s Day, graduations and retirements, Dalvey Compasses are particularly popular for weddings, and serve as an enduring memento of the big day.

Mark the occasion with engraving

Over the years we’ve had the privilege of engraving thousands of compasses with beautiful and heartfelt messages. The perfect symbolic gift, people have given Dalvey Compasses on significant occasions - major junctures on which the recipient is making a positive move forwards in life.
