Best Wrist Mounted Compass?

[OE2X]

I want something easy to read and wrist mounted. I would like to replace the strap with bungee cord as well.

Thanks.

I like my Aeris 2. Fair price. Big, easy to read; big buttons accesisible with gloves. What is not to like? Just read about someone selling their Uwatec ($399 - half new)and recommend using it in warm water, or you must take gloves off... bummer. See used equip section scubaboard.

My favorite compass is one that points North.

I use an "Eddie Bauer" zipper pull compass, it cost $2.98 and was in a bin at the check out counter.

The little split ring key chain thingie fits over a finger and I carry the compass on the inner side of my palm.

Not been lost yet.

After 40+ years of diving I have yet to impress one chick with my dive gear. A couple of guys, maybe, but I just don't look for that kind of attention.

Simpler is better.

The only thing I can think of is the size. Normal wirst mounts can be smaller than the type that you can mount in a console. I'd get the same size as the once used in consoles, that way if you ever want to you can place it in your console.

Checkout Suunto, nice upgrade path here........maybe get a Gekko later.

Actually, 2 words. SUNTO SK7. Hands down, the best out there IMHO.

Perfectly happy with the SK-7. It rated best in the tests I looked at prior to buying it.

That's what I call unique! :bang:

Ditto.

Just make sure you get the right one for your region as they come dip balanced for 6 or 7 different regions.

Suunto SK 7... simply the best!
