5.0 out of 5 stars Compact & easy to use.
I have several compasses for various uses this one being smaller & in the matchbox case is ideal for use in my buoyancy aid whilst sea kayaking. Though compact the dial face/bezel is easy to see I wish the luminous spots inside the the rotating bezel were easier to see in the dark but if you shine a torch directly into the bezel it does charge the luminous spots & lines.
4.0 out of 5 stars Seems ok
Compact design, seems good. The conversion chart on the slide out mirror is no use to anyone I would think!
2.0 out of 5 stars Poor quality.
I had an old Swiss made Recta. When SUUNTO bought them out I didn’t think there would be a drop in quality. I was wrong. The case is no where near tough. It’s says “made in Sweden” on the packaging but it feels to cheap and plasticky to me’ possibly Far Eastern. The needle now sits on a piece of clear plastic and the edges of it show up looking like orienting lines making this compass very difficult to read. The bezel is now black with white writing. On the photos they show this glowing, but it doesn’t making it impossible to read in the dark. I sent this back as it was not the quality I paid for. Sad as this was once a great compass.
Gran bussola
A prima vista è come nella descrizione, una bussola robusta e precisa, necessita di un minimo di conoscenza di orientamento ma con le istruzioni si può usare comodamente.Peccato per il prezzo un po’ elevato (versione per tutto il mondo)
Unique, compact design and well built
I need to preface this by saying I'm no expert in land navigation. I know enough to get by. However I did do a ton of research in selecting a compass and was surprised to find how many available models these days have annoying defects or other drawbacks. This model however seemed to stand out as not only lacking those annoyances, but it has several features that are, far as I can tell, fairly unique.-The sliding matchbox design is a plus for me as it means it closes up into a tidy rectangle with rounded corners, so it fits in a pocket without pointy bits. I'm not necessarily a fan of the fact that the only way to open it is to pull the lanyard, because I'm afraid it may eventually snap with time. However it shows no signs of doing so.-The case has a groove in the top with two glow-in-the-dark pieces you can aim much like the iron signs of a firearm when sighting.-The mirror is polished steel (non-magnetic, I checked) which is nice for durability and is also very clear. But what makes it very unique is that it drops down below the compass rather than above, which allows you to use the sights on the top without having to look through a hole, either when sighting a bearing or using the inclinometer to measure a height angle. The mirror can be a little fiddly as it slides freely when the compass is open. You can retract the mirror into the body when the compass is open by just tilting it.A final note is that this is the global version of this compass, and it appears that at least according to the map on the package (see photo), it is a *true* global compass. I saw another review from 5-6 months ago with a photo showing a different map on the package which showed it would not work in the farther parts of the southern hemisphere. I guess they made some small improvement to design?
Expert compass
Incredible design. Light weight, compact and versatile. I would not recommend this for someone starting out. If you don’t know the definition of the terms: grid magnetic angle, dip error, and avoiding an obstruction using an equilateral triangle, then don’t buy this.I absolutely love it.
Indispensable sur le terrain.
Qualité de finition, aiguille réactive et pratiquement fixe lors du déplacement (on ne perd pas son objectif de vu). Les possibilités offertes dans une si petite boite est tout bonnement génial.
Excellent product and customer service.
The overall experience working with the seller and the product quality is excellent. I would purchase this product again, and highly recommend the seller.
