Wrist Compass recomendation?

[SuperMiguel]

Which wrist compass you guys use?

Suunto SK7 in DSS bungee mount worn on top of right hand.

Whats the difference between a expensive compass like that one vs a cheap one?

I would agree that the Suunto SK7 is the compass to get. I use the DSS bungee mount as well but wear it on my left wrist.

I started with a more generic compass but the "card" did not allow much tilt and would stick.

With the SK7, it allows a 30 degree tilt and still moves accurately. So from top dead center, it can tilt a total of 60 degrees side to side.

You can also actually see in the window to get your heading.

+1 for the SK-7. I prefer the retractor.

Yep, just spend the money and get the SK7. This really is the best compass you can buy.

wrist mount is better than the 2 two types? Search results for sk-7 at scuba.com

I use the SK7 w/ wrist bungee on my left wrist. I use a Suunto for land nav as well.
