Excellent quality-price ratio
This compass is worth buying if you want to replace an old one. If you already have the hole or hole to fit the compass because you have an older model from the previous Contest series and you want to replace it, as is my case, this model fits perfectly.

Exchange Compass
Had to replace the several decades old contest compass on my SY because it was losing fluid. Ordering and delivery of the Contest 101 went smoothly and it fit into the old holes in the bulkhead without any problems. It is not clear why the inner cover of the black compass is white. The additional compensation device is a must, and it is easy to use after downloading the product description (svb). I am very pleased.

Good Compass
This compass replaces the previous model, which lasted 43 years. Installation was very easy because the new compass fit perfectly into the recesses of the predecessor. The degrees are very easy to read. A nice, useful part on board. And still important despite or because of all the electronics.

Fast delivery, good package. Looks good, solid compass.
Difficult to say, as I will use it after 2 month, but it looks fantastic. Quality of products also is nice.

Plastimo Contest 101
Easy to install. Not yet tested in navigation. Small preliminary remark however it was indicated that this compass was designed to also be able to read the heading followed from inside the cabin. In my case it was placed on a vertical plane outside. However, because of the height, the indicator is not visible inside!... Nevertheless, not too awkward since the compass remains visible inside and we can therefore calculate the heading followed by simple mental calculation .

Finally something new fits into the old cutouts.
I chose this compass because after 30 years the predecessor had given up the ghost. And lo and behold he fits exactly in the existing holes. Very easy to read from inside and outside. Easy to install with blank sticker.

Should have LED instead of ascendant bulb
The product comes with tiny ascendant bulb, a LED light should be standard nowadays. Otherwise good product.
