It doesn't have to make sense, it's cool. At least I'm sure thats what the writer's thought when they wrote it. But heck, for all we know traveling through time might polish and fix up metal objects. So the compass keeps getting repaired.

I'd think it was cooler if it actually made sense. If Locke gave 1954 Richard a future version of a compass that 1954 Richard already had, to prove that he was from the future, that would be cool.....and it would make sense. As it is, the whole thing seems ridiculous to me.
Then why did Julliet timetravel? She was "initiated" into the Others, wasn't she?
She was also branded with the mark which probably signified that she was no longer among them.
They were certainly aware of it existing in a closed loop. I think they commented on it in the fifth season commentary.
I don't know that's entirely certain. She was sorta different from them and just brought to solve a problem. But, even if she were, the act of killing an Other might have separated her from them.
Well, obviously, the plot would drive whether or not he jumped, but I hope that, logically, he wouldn't.
As someone else in this thread (I think) said, maybe only those who were still candidates time jumped.
