ok so this guy gives me a bunch of old....rather gothic dive gear and as you might think most of it was junk and i tossed it then i came to a very old AMF/Voit wrist mount pressure gage/compass. i know this thing is from the dark ages but i really would like to know more about it. can somebody point me in a solid direction?

Post a pic with the guys in the Vintage Diving Forum. They are a great resource

it's probably a capillary guage, super sensitive at shallow depths

That's pretty cool. Does it still work?

yep works fine the depth gage is slightly off only cause i dont know exactly how to recalibrate it and the compass is right on the money.
