Comments about Oceanic Oceanic SWIV Compass Module:

Used it for my AOW certification and it worked. The one thing I don't like about is the lobed/wide south pole marker. I prefer a needle because it gives a more accurate visual cue. Of course, you can just look at the degrees and get the same thing.

That's my only complaint, overall it works well.

O, and it does fit perfectly in the Oceanic SWIV console, as advertised... took me a few tries to get it in straight though.

Great buy for the price

Compass Thrown Off by Dive Computer

By Rick

from Deerfield Beach, FL. on 8/16/2008

Cons:

Unusable

Describe Yourself:

Diving Type:

Open Water Diving

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic SWIV Compass Module:

The compass rose is off approximately 60 degrees. When I take it out of the console, and it is not up against the VEO 100 dive computer, it is accurate. As soon as I put them together in the boot, North swings 60 degrees right, making the compass inaccurate and unusable?
