SUUNTO MC-2G Global Compass

Mirror compasses in the MC range are renowned for their accuracy and reliability, making them an essential tool for professionals such as surveyors, miners, architects, rescue patrols, hikers, boaters, and military personnel who require precise directional measurements. The declination adjustment system, which is a standard feature across the entire range, is particularly valuable in areas with significant magnetic variation, while the sighting notch ensures superior accuracy.

The MC-2 model is equipped with the Global Balancing System, further enhancing its performance. Field compasses have been essential navigation tools for thousands of years, with magnetic compasses remaining the most environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and dependable option for charting a course. The oldest Suunto field compasses still in operation date back to 1938, demonstrating their durability and longevity.

High-quality field compasses are low-maintenance, typically requiring only occasional rinsing in fresh water. They operate without the need for an external power source, drawing their energy from the Earth’s magnetic field. Features such as a clinometer, centimeter or inch scales, adjustable declination correction scale, and a baseplate with a magnifying lens and anti-slip rubber pads make these compasses versatile and user-friendly.

Key specifications for these compasses include dimensions of 65 x 101 x 18 mm (2.5 x 3.9 x 0.6 inches) with the lid closed, ensuring a compact and portable design for easy transport in the field. With their combination of precision, reliability, and durability, mirror compasses and field compasses in the MC range are trusted tools for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
