Compass bearing refers to the direction indicated by a compass, typically expressed in degrees from the north, using cardinal directions (e.g., N, E, S, W) or in a clockwise manner from 0° to 360°. True bearing, on the other hand, is measured in degrees from true north, which is the geographic North Pole, and does not account for magnetic declination. While compass bearings can vary due to magnetic variations, true bearings provide a consistent reference based on the Earth's geography. In navigation, true bearings are often preferred for accuracy, especially over long distances.
Push the lower left hand button to get to the compass Once on the compass setting, press and hold the lower right hand button until the four diagnoal points start spinning. Once they are spinning, place the watch on a flat surface and spin in the direction of the arrows until the diagnoal points stop flashing and display a bearing.

The compass rose can usually be found on the lower left hand side of the map.
A GPS uses satellites to show your exact position on a hand-held device. A compass point towards magnetic north, from which, using a map, you can take bearing of distant points to work out your position, or work out your direction of travel.Both are important tools to navigation - provided the GPS device's battery doesn't go flat!
Lewis and Clark used a hand compass to help navigate and stay oriented while exploring unknown territories during their expedition. The hand compass provided them with a basic direction of travel, aiding in their goal of mapping and documenting the locations they visited.

You can do it by hand, but its better to just get the tool from the auto parts.
you will need....bearing kit (includes seal) ,, approx
