When venturing out into new territory, the Suunto MC-2 G Mirror Sighting Compass offers precision navigation with a variety of carefully engineered and dependable features for challenging conditions. This G Mirror variant comes with Metric UTM scales and an inch ruler.
The Earth's magnetic field does not flow evenly between the magnetic poles along the surface of the planet. To compensate for the natural tilt in the magnetic field, this Suunto compass usesa fast globally balanced needle with jewel bearing. It is a unique globally balanced single needle system to work anywhere in the world. This is achieved by a breakthrough construction allowing the needle and magnet to tilt independently.
Integrated Clinometer: The clinometer is useful in uneven terrain where you need to determine slope gradient to pinpoint your exact location. It also helps to measure altitude.
Detachable Snap-Lock Lanyard: The lanyard with wristlock is easy to detach for working with the map.
Made In Finland: All Suunto compasses are handcrafted at our factory with 100% renewable energy.
Adjustable Declination Correction: The compass liquid used by Suunto is specially formulated to provide damping over a large temperature range while preventing the needle from sticking.
Stable Operation: The compass liquid used by Suunto is specially formulated to provide damping over a large temperature range while preventing the needle from sticking.
Mirror For More: The mirror on a compass serves the dual purpose of allowing you to sight bearings accurately and facilitating signaling by reflecting sunlight.
Accurate Bearings: Sighting hole and notch in a compass facilitate precise navigation by allowing you to align the compass with distant landmarks and obtain accurate bearings.
