An accidental purchase but a good compass from Anonymous on 18/07/2018
I didn't realise when I purchased this that the 'military' feature includes mils on the compass face where I really wanted degrees. My error. However, even though the degrees are in tiny writing, they are right on the base plate and thus easier to read than if on the ring like a normal compass, and therefore taking a bearing is easy. Needle movement was stable enough for a moderately paced rogaine. It feels nice in the hand.
