Double scale and built-in magnifying glass

The compass is equipped with a double directional scale, which facilitates orientation in various terrain conditions. It allows you to quickly and accurately determine the azimuth and navigate according to the map. In addition, the built-in magnifying glass allows you to read small details on the map, such as contour lines, trail markings, and landmarks, which increases the accuracy of route planning.

Rulers adapted to different map scales

This model has three measuring rulers that allow you to quickly convert distances according to the scale of the map. The rulers are matched to three popular scales:

1:25000 – for detailed travel maps,
1:50000 – a typical scale used in topographic maps,
1:63360 – often used in American orienteering (1 inch = 1 mile).

This allows the compass to accurately plan a route and calculate distances between points, which is especially useful when working with a map in the field.

Compact design and neck cord

The compass is made of durable plastic that provides high resistance to cracks, scratches, and harsh weather conditions. With dimensions of 125.5 x 60.3 x 10.7 mm and a weight of only 41 g, it takes up minimal space and fits easily in a jacket pocket or backpack. The set includes a 49 cm long brightly colored cord, allowing you to hang the compass around your neck or secure it against loss, which is especially useful during competitions, marches, and dynamic activities in the field.
