Product Information
The Oceanic Wrist Mount Swiv SH Wrist Compass (MPN 04.1056) is a wrist-mounted analog navigation compass for scuba divers, built around an extremely bright OceanGlo luminescent floating card with large bearing indicators and a design that allows both top and side reading.
Who it is for
This compass suits divers who want a dedicated navigation instrument on the wrist rather than a console or computer screen. It is useful for reciprocal out-and-back navigation, square and triangle patterns, boat-line returns, shore entries and low-visibility dives. Divers who keep a computer on one wrist commonly wear a compass like this on the other.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you read the Oceanic Wrist Mount Swiv SH compass underwater?
You can read it from the top or from the side, which is helpful when your arm position is restricted. Line up the high-visibility lubber line with the direction you want to swim, then hold that heading as the OceanGlo luminescent floating card settles. The large, easy-to-read bearing indicators let you check your heading quickly.
Is this compass readable in dark or low-visibility water?
Yes. The compass uses an extremely bright OceanGlo luminescent floating card that absorbs light and glows, so bearings stay visible in low-visibility conditions. The card absorbs light and glows, so bearings stay visible in low-visibility conditions, and the large bearing indicators also help readability.
How do you set an out-and-back course on this compass?
Turn the large ratcheting bezel to set your outbound heading against the index point, then swim with the lubber line on that bearing. Because the compass has both direct and reciprocal index points, the return heading is already marked for you, so you do not have to calculate it underwater. The bezel ratchets for precise, tactile adjustments.
Does this compass need a battery or any electronics?
No. You read bearings directly off the OceanGlo luminescent floating card using the lubber line and index points.
