The Suunto M-9 is the classic wrist compass: a liquid-filled, jewel-bearing capsule in a low-profile housing that rides on a velcro strap, so a direction check is as fast as glancing at a watch. Sight through the notches and the side window to take a bearing without breaking stride — on a trail, a paddle board, or a sailboat deck.
The luminous card stays readable at night, the capsule is insensitive to water pressure, and at 16 grams you will forget it is on your wrist until you need it. Balanced for the northern hemisphere; no battery, ever.
