The GPS is an informational accessory that enables an on-screen display of the player's current depth, lateral position, and time.
Depth is displayed as follows:

Notes
- This content is transcluded from Informational Accessories/note.
Unlike most accessories, informational accessories such as the GPS do not need to be equipped in an accessory slot. The GPS may be carried in the player's inventory without loss of functionality, unless equipped to a social slot. Additionally, the info it provides will be shared with nearby players of the same team in multiplayer. Keep in mind modifiers will no longer apply to the player when not equipped.
Tips
- Selling the GPS is more efficient than selling its separate parts (20 for the Gold Watch or 30 for the Platinum Watch, 20 for the Depth Meter, and 25 for the Compass).
- However, since you likely will need to craft the watch yourself, you should consider the cost of its components instead. In the worst case, if your world has platinum and you don't have spare bars, you'll need 40 Platinum Ore to craft the watch, which sells for 240 on its own, making a measly 15 of profit, which can even be negated if the two other accessories have particularly good Modifiers.
Trivia
- GPS stands for "Global Positioning System", which in real life is used to track the user's location.
- The GPS was the first combined Informational Accessory, existing far before any of the other accessories used to craft the PDA.
