Works well and the cover serves as a compass protection.

2 pieces returned. The plastic part of the product shows some kind of cracking in the plastic around the red triangle.

Excellent compass for orienteering and trekking trips. This is a very high quality compass, nothing wrong with it. The materials used, the finishes, the different settings / functions and its use are unparalleled. I used to use another well-known brand; I regret not having chosen SUUNTO earlier ... The price is reasonable considering the overall quality of the compass. I took the Global model in case I need to travel. Very precise, I can only recommend it.

I think for a mirror, a mirror compass is better than a ‘regular’ compass. The next fixed point is easier to look at and the mirror is otherwise usable even for tick checks. A bit like an RPN calculator: once you learn, there is no going back to the old.

The best of its kind.

I don’t actually feel like I need a mirror compass, but I do need a mirror for the trip (when hiking alone, eye problems, tick checks, etc.) and a compass. Here's a mirror compass.

Robust built. High quality. Thought, however, the luminescent effect would be slightly higher ..

I am completely satisfied with the qualities of the suunto mc2-Global: the azimuth readings are facilitated by the particularly ergonomic mirror and the triangulations gain in precision. It is a reliable tool when you want to venture off marked trails.

Previous reviews had highlighted the weak hinge of the mirror. The device requires gentle handling, as is the case with a compass. A protective bag for the compass is necessary for hiking. The Suunto instructions promised a bearing accuracy of 2 degrees. I find it a bit exaggerated, the correct accuracy maybe closer to 4: ice. Adjusting the deviation directly to the compass so you don’t have to calculate it is a great feature. I got many good tips for using the device from the user guide. What was new to me was determining the position by pointing at fixed points and using the mirror for signaling. In the past, I had imagined that a virtual compass on a cell phone would suffice, but running out of cell phone battery in the woods changed my mind.
