Review: Fully functional for navigation! - I had so many compasses by now, I stopped counting. Yes, I never go outdoors without one. Yes, I rarely use them. So why do I always carry one - learned the hard way. Many years ago I got so lost among rolling hills deep in a Canadian forrest that if I did not have my latest Silva with me (which I put in the poket as a joke) I would likely not be writing this now. With this purchase I got the Sun Company MiniComp II and the SUUNTO Clipper Compass. Why? A momentary lapse of reason. They look so cute and the price allowed me to satisfy my curiosity I love them both, so I will keep them. Quality is top! Both are liquid filled (important). Can they be used for actual navigation - absolutely! They look like toys but are not. They are accurate and have everything needed to navigate. I am fluent in operating a compass and the tiny size is, in my case, an advantage. If you never operated a compass these might confuse you (depends). I do like the Sun a bit better. The bezel is easier to rotate. The longer base makes it very intuitive to use, like a Compass Bonsai :) I really love the free floating design. There is no needle to bang against on long hikes or motorcycle rides. It is a serious tool that takes itself not too seriously. The SUUNTO is very nice too! But the bezel is unnecessarily tight. The lack of β€œbody” makes it a bit less intuitive. However it can be clipped to a wrist band, where the Sun cannot do this. It is a serious tool that takes itself too seriously. Yes, there is a needle, but it is in liquid, so from a functional and longevity stand point - needle or free floating - we are splitting hairs here. So - bottom line, I can now carry both discretely, have fun, and the kids will not roll their eyes … Ah … the compass … again :) Review: Great for Keeping You Properly Oriented - I purchased the SUUNTO Clipper to supplement my SUUNTO MC-2 baseplate compass. I attached the Clipper to my 22mm G-Shock resin watch band (which is fairly thick.) I notched the watch band slightly so that the open side of the compass clip (which has two fairly sharp plastic points and a plastic tab) grab the band securely. It fits comfortably on my band, but would likely fit better and completely close over a thinner watch band/backpack strap (e.g., 16-22 mm). When off my watch, the magnetic north on the Clipper accurately matched my baseplate compass bearing. Where it is attached on the 6 o'clock side of my watch band, it is situated on the inside of my wrist (closest to my body.) At that location, although a fair distance from the watch body/face, the metal in the watch appears to throw off the compass magnetic north by about 5 degrees. Even with that degradation of accuracy, I recently used the Clipper in that configuration on a 5-mile hike and it did a good job of maintaining a fairly accurate reading of north. To read the bearing, I found that it works best if I bend my elbow at the side of my body and point my arm away from the front of my body in a perpendicular position, and turn my wrist upward so that the compass is oriented in a level position. Thanks to the liquid filled jewel bearing, the cardinal points (N-S-E-W) rotate nicely when the Clipper is held in that manner. The luminous cardinal points glow brightly in the dark once charged with sunlight or a flashlight. The glow holds strongly for about three minutes, decreasing incrementally in intensity until ultimately faint, but still readable. I received the compass earlier than originally promised, so I was very happy with that. Overall, a good compass at a reasonable price, but should only be relied upon for quick direction finding to help keep you oriented. (UPDATE: I repurchased this compass in May 2026 - see photo. The previous compass, purchased in April 2020, still worked, but directional function became intermittent after it developed an air bubble. Not sure why that happened, but likely just due to wear and tear through my daily activities. Regardless, it has been a great compass. desertcart shipped both compasses early, so they were consistent with that, which I appreciated. I definitely recommend the SUUNTO Clipper for all the reasons I stated above). ## Features - Micro Compass: This super compact compass easily attaches to your sleeve, watch strap, backpack strap, or map edge so you can free up your hands; It's also great for underwater navigation - Balanced For Northern Hemisphere: This liquid filled jewel bearing compass has luminescent markings so it's operable in low light; The direction is on a rotating bezel in 10 degree increments - Stay On Course: Made in Finland, Suunto mechanical compasses help you safely and accurately navigate the great outdoors; Great for Alpine skiing, hiking, trekking, mountain biking, trail running and more - Pioneering Exploration: Combining advanced engineering and thoughtful design with ultra durable materials, our adventure ready compasses are fast, stable, and simple to use; No batteries required - Authentic Heritage: Founded in 1936, Suunto brings over 80 years of high quality heritage craftsmanship, relentless accuracy, and pioneering innovation to our watches, compasses, and dive products ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000BSDU4Y | | Additional Features | Portable, Waterproof | | Best Sellers Rank | #11,232 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #15 in Compasses (Sports & Outdoors) | | Brand | SUUNTO | | Brand Name | SUUNTO | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 4,928 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00045235900367, 06417084041029 | | Included Components | compass | | Item Dimensions L x W | 1.18"L x 0.94"W | | Item Highlight | Northern Hemisphere, Supercompact for Underwater Navigation&Hiking&Adventure, Cardinal Directions in Luminous Prints on Card | | Item Type Name | compass | | Item Weight | 1.12 ounces | | Manufacturer | Suunto | | Manufacturer Part Number | 9001681 | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | SS004102011 | | Mounting Type | Clip Mount | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 1.18"L x 0.94"W | | Special Feature | Portable, Waterproof | | UPC | 097914398958 045235900367 045235510351 799916932153 | | Unit Count | 1 count | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SUUNTO - **Item Weight:** 1.12 ounces - **Material:** Plastic - **Product Dimensions:** 1.18"L x 0.94"W - **Special Feature:** Portable, Waterproof ## Images ![SUUNTO Multifunctional Compass, Northern Hemisphere, Compact Waterproof Navigation Comapss for Hiking & Adventure - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71m-tOEEPfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are the luminescent markers self-luminating (tritium), or do they need to be exposed to light for them to be luminous in the dark?** A: I believe the markers are luminous paint. There is luminosity only in the four cardinal directions on the interior of the compass, while the degree markings around the outer circumference are plain white paint. In order to be fully functional for luminous use, the compass would need luminous markers on the cardinal points and also on the degree markers. This would make such a compass very expensive indeed. There may be a small amount of tritium dust embedded in the paint but these are not solid tritium markers such as you would find on high grade rifle sights. The markers glow very faintly but you can enhance the glow by shining a bright light onto the markers for several seconds. If the compass fits your watchband, it will be functional but don't expect military grade performance. In pitch dark, you will need to acquire a ray of light from somewhere in order to use this compass. Moonlight should be sufficient to allow use of the compass but not sufficient to charge the luminous markers. **Q: What os (one size) means? does it mean it can work in northern and southern hemisphere?** A: The clipper model # SS004102011 is for the Northern hemisphere The clipper Model # SS004102012 is for the Southern hemisphere OS means Ordnance Survey as already explained **Q: This can be used for diving? I don't see a depth resistance rating on it's description. Thanks.** A: Mine has survived 15+ dives between 40 and 80 ft and works great clipped to the lower strap of my wrist-mounted computer just above where it meets the buckle. I don't expect any problems with zero air visible inside. **Q: is this model made in China** A: The Suunto Clippers that I received were manufactured in Finland. One of the two reasons I purchased them (1 - Suunto reputation, 2- made in Finland) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fully functional for navigation! *by M***I on November 15, 2025* I had so many compasses by now, I stopped counting.

Although it is entertaining to see the look on passengers faces when they ask a question such as "which way is Boston?" and I glance at the Sun and make note of the time, then point in the general direction of the city...it is still nice to be able to take a quick glance at my wrist to get a little more accurate idea of which way I'm looking or which way the boat is heading. I have only had this compass for a couple weeks but so-far I have been overall happy with it. I had to modify my watchband a bit as it is too wide and too thick for the compass as-is. I also took a file to the pointy parts of the compass that hold it onto the watch-band because it was digging into my wrist. I *may* start wearing it on the chest strap on my PFD instead because it is still a mild distraction (I still feel it digging in a bit). As far as the compass itself goes... I like it! I won't pretend that it would be my first choice to use in navigating our 122 foot, 30 knot vessel in the fog but I am getting to the point that I trust it for casual use while looking for distant landmarks when off-shore. The compass card is well damped and isn't bouncing around on me like some I have seen. Overall...I give it a thumbs up! ## Frequently Bought Together - SUUNTO Multifunctional Compass, Northern Hemisphere, Compact Waterproof Navigation Comapss for Hiking & Adventure - SUUNTO Multifunctional Compass, Northern Hemisphere, Compact Waterproof Navigation Comapss for Hiking & Adventure - SealLine Waterproof Map Case --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://czech.desertcart.com/products/29366951-suunto-multifunctional-compass-northern-hemisphere-compact-waterproof-navigation-comapss-hiking](https://czech.desertcart.com/products/29366951-suunto-multifunctional-compass-northern-hemisphere-compact-waterproof-navigation-comapss-hiking) --- *Product available on Desertcart Czech Republic* *Store origin: CZ* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
