Sun Company GoCompass - Micro Orienteering Wrist Compass | Watch Band or Paracord Bracelet Compasses with Rotating Bezel

I bought this little gem in March, 2021, and slipped it onto my cheap Casio watchband. The white rotating bezel is clearly marked in 5-degree increments, and makes it easy to set the compass for your local declination, to find true North to within a 2- or 3-degree precision. It has served me well, two-and-a-half years, and only in the last five months have I noticed the bezel marks fading. You probably know just how much damage accumulates to anything worn on your wrist, day and night. Yet, even without the bezel markings, the compass is still fully functional, rotating freely, has no bubbles to hinder rotation, and placed alongside my Suunto MC-2, is just as accurate as it was when new! I have great admiration for the people who designed and created this particular "button" compass, and I hope they continue to produce compasses of this excellent quality. This one is definitely worth the money...and I'm ordering another one today. (...and the old one will go into a mini Survival Kit...)

Effective. Just installed on my Seiko “Arnie”. Was a little snug to get on but a little ingenuity and common sense will assist you not only with this, but in life generally.Can’t comment on longevity but it’s definitely infinitely more comfortable than suunto clipper compass that Eats into your wrist. This compass is nicely liquid filled and points magnetic north in the usual time a liquid filled compass does. Not at all a jerky movement. The bubble isn’t large and it’s not in the way. I’ve really got zero complaints. It’s sharp looking too. The price is reasonable.

I think it would take an odd watchband to fit to this compass. My military style one is too wide. Dress bands are probably too narrow. The compass needs to fit well or it will twist or turn over making it inaccurate. Held in the hand in free space it reads well. Of course, it is a very small compass so you can read it from far away, but that's not a defect.

Yep. I was like you once. A very desperate person. A desperate person? Desperate for what you may say? A COMPASS THAT CAN ATTACH TO YOUR WATCH. Why did I want a compass to attach to my watch? I dont know, but I really wanted one one day and I looked on amazon. I was surprised there were actually a few results, but it seemed like this one was the best one based on the rating. I read the reviews. The constant, ominous and volumptious warnings, whispering grave danger towards my unwavering ears. They screamed and whispered, "doooont buuy it... it demagnatizes after a weeek...." and a bunch of other reviews with that same memo. Yet me, being the desperate and determined person I was, I BOUGHT IT... and then, I waited... couple days later, DING DONG. The box came. I opened the box, and Voila~ the compass watch attachment was here. I attached it to my watch, and I giggled in glee at the compass watch attachment, as it would sway with my direction, the arrow in a constant dance with the north. Fast forwards some mere days later, I woke up one morning. I had a smile on my face, as I was ready to wear my special watch again! Though, my face quickly turned anew face, a face filled with, hatred... betrayment, perhaps. The compass was DEAD. Frozen. Dumb... I, was heartbroken. My compass watch attachment was no more but a useless peice of plastic. Yet alast with a defeated attitude, I marched over to my phone, opened amazon and went to customer support. I issued a refund, yet to no avail, I was met with utter silence... i was stuck with a peice of 11 dollar plastic, and a feeling of shame for not listening to those past reviews. I wept and coped, as I angrily hurled the compass watch attachment at the wall, and later down the toilet and into the sewer where it could belong.SO, HEED MY WARNING, dear amazoner. Do NOT buy this. No matter how utterly TEMPTING it may seem, pulling you in with its call like a siren... I heavily urge you to turn away from this, this... SCAM! And never look back! It is an illusion of false hope, and just a terrible, terrible product with terrible, terrible people pulling the strings.I kissed my 11 dollars goodbye. Will you do the same?

It fell out of the base on day two, husband used gorilla glue and it fell out again within a week. Over all, he likes it, it's a good size not too bulky, compass works great. You get what you pay for, invest in some glue :)

I spend a lot of time outdoors in may areas that are unknow and cover vast uninhabited sq miles so having a quick reference compass is handy. Don't get me wrong I also carry topo maps and an accurate compass but a quick look at my wrist for reference is nice and easy. This takes a lot of abuse and holds up well hasn't gotten any bubbles in it yet and has a reference ring that can be set for direction, but turns freely and doesn't have a way to lock it.

I bought two, one for my Casio fishing watch and one to make a bracelet using paracord. It fits my Casio watch band a bit loosely, and can come off unexpectedly when you take off the watch, so be careful about that issue. It looks great on the paracord bracelet. Five stars.

Used one for a few weeks in Alaska and I'm totally satisfied (ordered a second one for a different watch already). Even though my watch already has a digital compass, it is much easier to be able to glance at this and not have to push any buttons or calibrate it, etc. Sure, it is not literally bulletproof, it isn't easy to read in the dark, and it doesn't have any adjustment for declination, but for the price and what I use it for I have ZERO complaints. Note that it was challenging to get it onto the thick rubber watchbands on my 2 Casio watches but it does go on with some effort and ultimately that was a good thing because it firmly grasps the watchband and does not move around on the band at all after installation.
