This Navitron Steampunk Wrist Compass and Sundial features a sundial, latitude finder, and compass (with locking button) – all of which fold flat for a compact look. To add to the steampunk look, the piece is crafted from antique brass with a heavy-duty brown leather band.

In a recent episode of her show The Flog, Felicia Day participated in a steampunk photo shoot for Clockwork Couture. She models a few outfits for them, but my favorite is the neo-Victorian version of Codex from The Guild pictured above. Steampunk definitely suits Felicia Day. Then again, what doesn’t?

As we’ve learned in the past, a lack of badass technology made the 19th century especially difficult for Transformers. Thankfully, Optimus made it through with copper flare, a stovepipe hat and the ability to transform into a locomotive, earning him a badge of eternal cool instead of an awkward history as a Conestoga wagon.

If you fancy 19th century, steampunk-themed attire, check out ThinkGeek’s “Solar Turbine” Steampunk Pocketwatch, which offers quartz movement along with an English pewter casing, copper wire accents and a spinning inset metal plate with a brass finish which invokes a turbine feel. A gift box and soft velvet bag are also included.

These detailed steampunk Long Fall Boots were made from canvas shoes, a pair of cheap, black pleather boots and giant springs (many, many early Test Subjects died wearing these back in the day). DeviantArt user batman-n-bananas made them to go with her steampunk Chell costume, which includes this incredible Portal gun.

In season 3 of the detective show Castle, Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion) ended up on the tail of a steampunk society in New York City. In the episode (titled Punked), Castle becomes interested in the genre and ends wearing a fancy, cybernetic arm. It was built by Thomas Willeford, and he’s decided to sell the piece on eBay. He’s been hanging on to it and turning down offers on the arm, but now he wants to sell it in order to fund a new project.
Bidding’s currently at $1,700, and the reserve isn’t met—but there is still two days left. I’m a little surprised Fillion hasn’t just bought it for himself. It seems like it might be his style.
If you’re tired of hearing the word steampunk, this ring might change your tune. This bronze ring actually turns into a telescope and a magnifying glass with a compass. It’s functional and incredibly cool looking (bonus: no gears randomly glued on).
Check out the ring in action after the break.
