About Safari Browser

A realistic, skeuomorphic circular compass icon. The center is a glossy blue dial with a faint map-like pattern; a white eight-point compass rose sits over the blue field. An orange-and-white needle (orange pointing northeast, white pointing southwest) sits on a small metallic pivot at the center. Cardinal letters (N, E, S, W) appear near the edge of the dial.

The face is enclosed by a thick metallic silver bezel with inner and outer highlights and shadows giving a 3D chrome effect. Small tick marks around the dial rim and subtle radial gradients reinforce the glossy, tactile appearance.
