On top of the junk readings, the compass is "Water Resistant" because it is junk plastic with no quality of build. I know it's under $10, but this thing probably cost $0.10 to press. There is no declination adjustment and the "high speed magnetic needle" has the accuracy of my 10-year old telling me the directions. Wasted my money, and my time. It will be returned. The only, and I mean ONLY good thing is it comes with an adjustable lanyard.
In summary, DO NOT BUY THIS COMPASS! Go buy Suunto A-30 and spend the money for a compass you can learn with and will last you for many years, not minutes.
