Compass

Muy buena calidad

磁気コンパスはピンからキリまで百円でも買えますがぁ・・・、こちらはピンです。 子供の頃からオリエンテーリング資料や、軍事雑誌の写真で見ただけで、本物を手にしたのは初めてで、それだけでも私にとって貴い品物です。 ミラー付きで目標と方位を同時に確認できるとか、天体観測に地上からの角度が測れたり、高機能なのも素晴らしい。 そして、タイトルにもしたフィンランドにある精密機器メーカーの製品である。マリメッコやムーミン製品も買って、ロシアとの闘いに協力したい。 フィンランド式サウナで整う前に、地図上で自分の位置を確認したい。「何様だ？」社会での自分の立ち位置が確認できない私です。

The product did not come with sealed package, hence don't know whether is a brand-new product?

Suunto MC-2 Compass is great - modern, feels solid, a lot of features integrated. Problem is not with compass, but with seller. The very web page (from Amazon AU site) does not specify if compass is for south or north hemisphere; at least, I have failed to find relevant info. Considering that it was purchased from Australian Amazon - Australia being south - and that delivery address is New Zealand - also south - I took for granted that SH variant of compass will be delivered. That was not so. I have received NH variant. It works, but needle positions at angle, where tip is touching compass case, and does not move freely - unless you keep whole compass at slight angle. Repacked and returned same day (Amazon return policy and service are great, must say - simple process, no questions asked, all paperwork provided). Once it is back with seller and my valet is credited, I will reorder global variant of this compass.

Great compass. Buy with confidence
