Entry level compass

Posted by R Crabtree on 26th Jan 2011

I have been using this compass for quite some time now and find that although the scales and size are spot on the compass does tend to wander quite a lot (this may be a fault with my own compass). With this in mind i am still using this compass which has served me well in finding my way out of many a sticky situation on the fells. The build quality of the compass is excellent as you would expect from Silva, however I would suggest that this is a very good budget compass, but for more accuracy go for a more expensive model from within the Silva range.
