Hi All

Anyone have experience with a Timex E-Compass ? Is it accurate?

Thanks in advance

Rick

It's a nice daily wearer in the under $100. range imhohand6.gif...and yes it would be accurate given the fact it is a battery operated quartz enginewatch2.gif

Maybe I should rephrase this,I looking for a daily beater that has an accurate compass without going digital.

The Maratac AQC (by Timex) is a great watch for under $100, with analog compass and declination adjustment.  Plus you can change it up with different Zulus (or NATO or any other open ended straps).  I take mine to Scout camps and it is just as accurate as any of my standard compasses.



Cheers,
Griff

I have one it is nice and digital. As for the accuracy I have not checked it against a Lensatic compass.
