This is not a tritium compass - it is a cheap knockoff. It has no tritium and it does not glow in a dark. My compass also has a slight misalignment - not critical but still gives an error for about 3 degrees.

It looks almost like plastic the finish is so fine, surprising really - and it's robust. As another reviewer has said it's not a tritium compass but you wouldn't come close to a tritium lit model for the price - but it is illuminated by glow-in-the-dark lettering and that's fine. I've often noticed some compasses I've bought before are polarized wrong, something that's easily fixed by repolarizing it correctly with a strong magnet but this one came out of the box right and worked just fine. Overall it's surprisingly robust, good looking, sturdy and does the job well - I have no hesitation in recommending this compass.

Looks to be robust for plastic item. Plastic hinges look to be strong Compass is not fluid filled. Compass can pop out of base plate, but easily reset. It is a simple item and not expensive.
