Retired or active military personnel.

I I have a problem. I'm looking to buy a quality compass, but I am confused. I see these military style compasses selling for as little as $10.00 dollars, and it makes me question the quality of the compass itself. I know that cammenga is the official compass of the U. S. military, and they are designed to be put through hell during their life time. Can anyone offer any advice on this matter. Thank you.
