Review: Great compass for your watchband! ...with some modification... - UPDATE: ANNNNNNNNND six months later it's broken. Inside rattles more than usual. Believe magnet has become un-attached under the dial. ORIGINAL: Great compass for your watchband, but only fits small watchbands without some creative modification... I used one piece of 550 paracord sheath to attach this to a 22mm NATO band, alongside my Casio solar-atomic watch. I used just the sheath of the paracord to reduce it’s thickness, making the compass sit flatter against the watchband and less likely to snag. At first I was kinda frustrated that they didn’t offer this for a larger size watch band, but now I don’t really mind because my modification worked great. I removed the core from a piece of paracord, leaving just the sheath. Then I threaded it through the compass and around the watch band, got it reasonably tight, and tied a square not. Then I removed the paracord and melted off the excess after pulling the knot extremely tight. Then I rethreaded the loop of paracord sheath through the compass. The way I did this was by inserting a bite down through both of the compass’ metal watchband slots, but before threading the second slot, I twisted the loop of paracord sheath 180°. It’s a little tricky to get the size of the loop perfect, and after I had tighted the square knot and melted the excess paracord, I realized that my perfect length of loop had stretched due to the extreme tension I had applied in tightening down the square knot. But originally when I tied the knot, I had not used the 180° twist, which leaves an X of paracord directly underneath the compass. So upon final installation of my modified attachment loop, adding that half twist took out just enough of the slack I had added when I tightened the knot that I was able to thread the 22mm NATO strap through both bites and underneath the X. This left me with an extremely firm and low-profile attachment to the watchband, which is almost imperceptible unless you are looking quite closely at it. The tritium glow is superb. The accuracy is unparalleled in other watchband compasses. Cammenga is a great brand and I fully expect this thing to reside on my arm for many years —at least until the tritium decays and ceases to glow brightly enough. 3H has a halflife of about 12 years, so it’ll still be glowing faintly in 20 years I think. Maybe in 30 years it will be so faint as to require replacement. I fully expect this compass to last longer than that given the durability of its construction. I like it so much I added a 25mm round adhesive film watch protector to ensure I don’t scratch up the glass. Super happy with this purchase!
Review: WAY overpriced cheap junk, desertcart won't let you return it, doesn't do anything it was supposed to! - Can't return through desertcart because of "chemicals", yet they shipped it to me?! It doesn't do anything but cost more than any other compass in this category: does not point to either magnetic or true north, shockingly dim glow (old manufacture date?), wrist strap buckle doesn't buckle because pin/prong within buckle too short to reach the buckle/frame/clevis/shackle (another QC issue)! Pros: wrist strap length designed to fit adult wrists, & readability. Cons: everything else. It does reliably point in one direction but it's not north, so if you could probably pick one direction and stick with it in a crisis. I've not yet compared it to my GPS to see what it's actually indicating. Originally purchased this as it was made by the same company as the lensatic compass I used for 27 years in the Army (which was an outstanding compass). But this one is worse than junk, it's expensive junk! Recommend going with (Finland) Suunto M-9 wrist compass for half the price, however the printed numbers are backwards so that you can hold it at eye level and read the bearing, once you get used to that the M-9 is a great compass.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great compass for your watchband! ...with some modification...
*by O***N on August 16, 2020*

UPDATE: ANNNNNNNNND six months later it's broken. Inside rattles more than usual. Believe magnet has become un-attached under the dial. ORIGINAL: Great compass for your watchband, but only fits small watchbands without some creative modification...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great EDC/Backup Compass
*by M***T on May 12, 2014*

First thing, this is NOT designed to replace my MILSPEC Cammenga Tritium Lensatic compass that i own...I was trained in land nav on that compass, and it is a go to unit for all things land nav related for me..I know it will work, period...With that compass, i can find fence post in the ground from miles away, using the compass, terrain association and a good topo map... That said, i attach the wrist compass to my Traser H3 watch band, when i out in the woods fly fishing. as i am out in some pretty remote areas, and the ability to determine ones general direction is priceless...Yeah, yeah, i know all about the Sun, Stars, Moon and moss tricks, but this little guy works perfectly for the intended task.. I is accurate, well built and glows like crazy, right next to my Tritium watch... This is an essential piece of my edc kit and should be part of yours...Don't go cheap on kit like this that could save your life..
