Suunto M-3 D/L Compass

For the avid adventurer who needs to know where they are anywhere in the world, the Suunto M-3 D/L Compass uses a two-zone system balanced to the northern hemisphere. Its adjustable declination allows you to resolve the relationship between true north and magnetic north depending on your location, which is an essential feature for precise orienteering in the wilderness. A small brass key at the end of the lanyard turns the declination to the desired point. The M-3 has 3 scales on the sides of the base plate for accurate map-to-compass translation: inches, 1:24,000, and 1:62,500 map scales. A 4X magnifying lens on the base plate ensures that you see every detail on your map, while easy-to-read luminous markings allow for readings at night or in low-light conditions. The serrated bezel ring and jewel bearing make for effortless and precise readings. The ergonomically designed base plate includes anti-slip rubber pads and rounded edges for comfortable holding. Marking holes make for easy drawing of control points.
