MARES Mission 1C Wrist Compass
Navigate the underwater world with unparalleled confidence and precision using the MARES Mission 1C Wrist Compass. Engineered for divers who demand reliability and clarity, this essential piece of instrumentation ensures you always know your heading, allowing you to focus on the beauty of your dive. Whether you are charting a new reef, returning to a specific point of interest, or simply maintaining your orientation, the Mission 1C is your steadfast partner in underwater exploration.
Unmatched Readability and Versatility
The standout feature of the Mission 1C is its innovative dual-reading system. This design allows for maximum versatility, catering to your preferred navigation style. You can obtain a quick, traditional reading from the top of the compass, or utilize the highly practical side-view window for gun-sight accuracy while swimming with your arm extended. This dual functionality means you can maintain a streamlined profile and still get an instant, precise bearing without breaking your trim. The large, 40 mm diameter dial plate is designed for maximum legibility, featuring bold, clear markings that are easy to see at a glance, even in challenging visibility. Enhanced with a powerful phosphorescent treatment, the dial glows brightly in low-light conditions, making it perfect for night dives, deep dives, or exploring inside wrecks and caverns.
Engineered for Real-World Diving Conditions
MARES understands that a diver is rarely perfectly horizontal in the water. That´s why the Mission 1C is designed with a maximum operative tilt of up to 20 degrees. This generous tilt compensation means the compass card remains level and provides an accurate reading even when the compass is not held perfectly flat. This crucial feature forgives minor imperfections in your buoyancy and trim, reducing navigational errors and increasing your overall safety and efficiency underwater. The oil-bath design further enhances performance by dampening the card´s movement, ensuring a smooth, stable, and flutter-free reading as you move through the water.
Robust Construction for Lasting Durability
Built to withstand the rigorous demands of scuba diving, the Mission 1C features a robust case crafted from high-resistance technopolymer and a scratch-resistant polycarbonate face. This durable construction protects the sensitive internal mechanism from accidental bumps, drops, and the pressures of deep diving. The compass is mounted on a comfortable and secure wrist strap, keeping it readily accessible at all times without encumbering your hands. A ratcheting bezel allows for easy course setting, providing tactile feedback with each click so you can confidently set your heading, even while wearing thick gloves.
As a dedicated, non-console instrument, the MARES Mission 1C offers a streamlined, minimalist approach to navigation, making it an ideal primary compass or a reliable backup for any dive computer. Trust in the legendary quality of MARES to guide your underwater adventures.
