Wei Jian Tan –
Used the Mares Handy Compass last week on a night dive off Tioman. The luminescent dial was bright and easy to read, even with murky visibility. Only wish it had a wrist mount option.

The compass is sturdy and feels solid in hand. I like how quickly the bezel rotates and the numbers are big enough to see even with gloves on. No issues after multiple dives so far.
