Anyone had any luck overhauling the wet compass? Mine's working, just can't see it unless it's in direct sunlight. Figure it needs cleaning and fluid change. Anyone done it? Nothing in the archives about it.

If it is similar to the Russian compass, it is pretty straight forward.
It can be difficult or impossible to get the back off; they are threaded on and require a watch style pin wrench. Securing the compass body without damaging is difficult.
Once off, drain, clean replace fluid, replace seal and refill.

Best to submerge entire compass in fluid preventing any bubbles. JB
