Review on ๐Ÿงญ Scuba Choice Diving Dive Compass: Navigate Effortlessly with Retractor by Edward Perez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but not the best compass on the market

I am a diving instructor. I have been using an earlier version of this product for 5 years. I like the price and the fact that it's light and compact. I also love how I can buckle my buoyancy compensator; pull it out when i need it; and release it and retract it safely into my BC when you're done with it. Eventually the stainless steel wore out and broke. What I don't like is that the bearing is almost impossible to read through the side window without flipping it up and this prevents it from giving you an accurate bearing when sailing ahead. This means you have to hold it level and tilted to get an accurate reading/azimuth and then sail towards your target. To be honest, Sunnoto compasses, although more expensive, are much better than a compass. I will either send it back or just keep it in my dive rescue kit.

Pros
  • Retractor attached to compass
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
