I have a Dacor wrist mount. It is rarely used as I dive where there is good visibility and use natural navigation. In other words, it is usually in my room.
 
Suunto on a retractor clipped to my BC. I do not like anything on my left wrist. I find it inconvenient when I need to use the inflator / dump valve.

SK 7 on left wrist.

Switched from Oceanic as it doesn't tolerate as much tilt angle . Just curious can someone describe or show a photo of the bungee setup.

Hi pufferfish. I am from Toronto, Canada, I don't know If you are from the same city. I am looking for a suunto compass kb-14 or 360 R. Do you know what stores caries them? Thank you in advanced.
 
I have the Aeris Nav console with the compass and depth gauge on one side and the pressure gauge on the flip side.

This setup allows you to navigate a constant bearing at a fixed depth as you run out of air. :)

What is so special about the Suunto compasses? Almost half so far has an SK6/7, do these point to magnetic north better than others??? :wink:
Suunto sk7 has big digits for >40yo eyes.

Oceanic, on my left wrist.

Actually they show quite a deviation towards passing schools of reindeer which is a major problem around the holidays

Well that's why I get lost when they move at autumn :eyebrow:
Am I the ONLY LONELY having my SK-7 on my right wrist :11: and Vyper on my left?
Planning to assemble primary/secondary ones on my video housing...
