It's an Oceanic compass that you can pop into a console or into a special 
rubber wrist strap.  The bare module has four tiny holes in the back with 
some space underneath.  If I could figure out how to get the bezel off, I 
might be able to rig something up.  Guess I'll take it into my favorite dive 
shop and let them break it...
