Alternative to wearing your diving compass on your wrist. Keeps it protected and close to your body. Underwater navigation was never easier with this handy retractor mount for Suunto SK7 and SK8 wrist strap compass modules.
The retractor can either be unclipped or extended whilst attached to your BCD. The stainless steel cable is nylon coated to prolong the life of the item in salt water and has a 27.2 kg (60 lbs) breaking strength to prevent accidental loss.

At the other end is your choice of a stainless steel Spilt Ring to easily attach to your BCD, or a plastic Snap Clip to attach to a D-ring. The Quick Connect retracting end means you can easily disconnect the compass and retractor from the attachment point when required.
