The compass arrow moves smoothly in every horizontal direction without sticking.

It's pretty small and the band is bad. It did seem to work ok underwater the one opportunity I had to use it.Sadly the band is short and the release catches easily so when taking off my gear the compass dissappeared. It's marketed as a diving compass it needs to make it back on the boat and with this band it may not do that. I wear a medium glove and to put the compass on I had to try and hold the end while slipping it over my wrist. Coming back onboard with about 500psi in my cylinder and fins removed I see the compass drop off my wrist and float away. For anyone who dives you know that things catch when getting your gear on or off. Having a flimsy latch release and the band completely slip free is a major letdown.On top of it all I pride myself in never leaving trash in the water and there was no way to get this back.... I am not happy about that at all. A slightly longer band and a simple folded over and sewn end would have solved this issue.

大きく見やすいリストコンパスはあまり種類がない中よく出してくれました視認性も精度も耐久性もしっかりした良い製品このメーカーは腕時計装着用のコンパスも買ったが優秀だったスントの1/3程度の価格でこのクオリティお勧めです

I have used and purchased many compasses over the years. This compass has proven to be the very best for the money. Great value. The band is elastic an easy to use. If the seam of the band had been sewn differently, I would have given it five stars. The band folds back to the inside where it is sewn and that part of the band will scratch your wrist if you wear this against your skin….but otherwise an almost perfect design.

The compass is just what I wanted! I'm a photographer and I wanted a quick wrist compass for documenting Eagle nests! It's perfect and very bright in low light situations!!!

Nice compass but way to small for diving in my mind Trying to read a heading

Very handy compass and because its wrist mounted , their when you want it

Excellent product, price and delivery. Thank you.

Very useful item!

Very good quality compass.

This is a very nice little wist compass. I need a compass for flying my Paramotor. Its precision is about 10 degrees (+-5degrees) which is as good as it gets for something on your wrist while you are actively moving. The movement itself is excellent. Very smooth and does not hang up. The diameter of the sealed movement is 35mm. It weighs 24.5 Grams. The attachment for the wrist strap is solid unlike another in this price range which uses spring pins which I can envision letting go if the compass is snagged hard enough and then watching fall to the ground 700 feet below.It has a sighting window on the edge with 5 degree markings which are hard to use for my old eyes. Mostly because the 10 degree increment marks are barely discernible from the 5 degree marks. This edge sighting window is "foggy" unlike the sellers photo. That being said, the top viewed compass is excellent.Because this is so light weight and inexpensive, this makes an excellent replacement for those cheap and questionable mini compasses they put in survival kits.In spite of the foggy edge sighting window, I still give this 5 stars because the movement is just as good as any high quality compass.Update:I purchased a Suunto M-9 wrist compass because of the clearly bold numbers and markings which are easier to see. The Suunto must be perfectly level for the compass card to spin. The Suunto is unacceptable for a wrist compass. Thankfully Amazon took it back and gave me a prompt refund.

I gave this a 4, but I really like the concept of this wrist compass.It works like this. You hold the compass at eye level, and then turn your body until the bearing you want appears in an index window on the edge of the compass. There are two white dots on the opposite end of the bearing you just aligned so you can pick a point to sight and approach along your bearing path.The disadvantage of this wrist compass is that you can't line up any orienting lines with a map due to its non-transparent bottom. The fact that the compass is mounted on your wrist also contributes to this problem. But it seems to be more accurate than a regular compass if you already know your bearing. This is because you sight it at eye level.For example, you might take a bearing from a map and then transfer it to the watch. Another advantage is that it leaves your hands free.I found this compass was useful primarily for orienting myself toward North so I could then orient my orienteering map properly. It was quick and reliable -- I was able to get oriented before my team could with their Silva-style, transparent base compasses they had around their neck or wrapped around their wrists with the lanyard attached to the compass.This wrist compass was also useful if someone on the team had already taken a bearing that I trusted. I could then simply raise my wrist to eye-level, and then move my body until the bearing they had taken appeared in the index window on the edge of the wrist compass, in my line of sight. Then I could find a landscape object and head for it.One part of the compass still makes no sense to me. The clear plastic window that holds the fluid and the guts of the compass can be rotated -- there is a very thin orienting arrow on its face that you can turn to different positions. But it's independent of the needle and the disk upon which the degrees are located. It basically serves no purpose, based on my current understanding of orienteering. And I do know how to use a regular Silva-style, transparent base compass.In spite of the advantages, the product could be improved a few ways. First, the compass portion is rather small. I am a small person and I think there is room on my wrist surface area to support a bigger compass so you can see it better. I have to wear glasses to see the bearings too, which is a bit annoying. Finally, the bearings you read in the index window are only numbers. It would have been better if they put N at 0 degrees, E at 90 degrees, S at 180 degress and W at 270 degrees so you don't have to convert N, E, S and W to degrees when looking for these directions. This is relatively minor, and probably due to the fact the compass is so small. I did pick up the degree-direction relationship pretty fast as you are simply take quarters of the 360% circumference of the circle to find these directions.The compass provides those markings, along with SE, NE etcetera, but you lose the fine, numbered bearing markings. PIck your druthers :)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MUVOS5V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1One thing, don't be fooled by the white dots where you take your sighting on the face of the compass housing. I thought they were luminous but they aren't luminous. The dots are there to improve your ability to see where the compass is pointing after you read the bearing in the index window in normal light.However, I still think it's a great wrist compass. It's great for taking a fast bearing of North, for example, without whipping out your compass from around your neck or backpack. I also met with an experienced orienteer recently, and he told me he rarely takes a bearing -- he uses the map and contour lines in order to find various controls on orienteering courses. So, if his experience is typical of other experienced orienteers, you should be able to get by with this wrist compass in the majority of situations where you don't have to get a bearing off the map. I love orienteering, so carrying more than one compass isn't a big deal for me anyway; I like the compass acquisition process and the fun of owning multiple compasses.However, I would love to see them keep improving and developing this wrist compass by making it bigger and easier to read.
