Phosphorescent Lensatic Military Compass 27
Made in the USA with Cammenga quality. For those who prefer a more cost-effective means of navigating terrain, we offer a Phosphorescent Lensatic Compass option. This compass is essentially the same trustworthy model supplied to the U.S. Military. The only difference between this Model 27 and the Model 3H is this version employs a phosphorescent paint for lightless visibility instead of self-luminous Tritium.

I read a lot of good stuff about the compass before I bought it but I didn’t know it was made like things were made back in the 80s, to outlast your heirs and their heirs. Opening the clam needed some effort, very strong joints. Tough thick metal encasing a free floating liquidless compass with phosphorescent tick mark and looking window. All you have to do is flash a flashlight on the compass for 5 seconds & you can read everything in the dark. Closing the compass - brakes stop the compass stops rotating in stow away mode. Also no need for a ruler. The ring rotates in clicks 3 clicks 1 degree. Once you take angles from a map all you have to do is count clicks left or right to set declination. Directions are to the T accurate when I compared it to iPhone compass app. Amazing stuff really. Even if you don’t use one..nice collectible.

So far, so good. The only issue noticed so far is cosmetic in nature, not functional.

I was looking for an accurate, shock, and water proof compass that wasn't affected by temperature after my baseplate compass developed a bubble. This compass met my criteria and I am very happy with my purchase.

Construcción sólida de metal y vidrio de primera calidad, muy por encima de otras hechas de plástico. Bolsa incluÃda.La brújula más confiable que puedes tener y la última que tendrÃas que comprar. Vale lo que cuesta.
