Since elementary school, I haven't held such equipment in my hand. The needle seems to move slowly and works properly only when the compass is held perfectly level. Still, for this price, you can't complain. The housing is durable, and north is indicated correctly. That's all you need from a compass. Impatient people will have to spend more and buy a model with a better mechanism.
Compact and lightweight lensatic compass—an essential navigation tool for any outdoor survival adventure and off-road exploration enthusiast.
The direction dial is set in liquid, ensuring smooth compass operation during movement. A fine wire front sight and a peep sight with integrated magnifying glass allow for highly accurate bearing readings, while phosphorescent indicators ensure visibility and navigation after dark. Ideal for map reading, the device features a side scale on the casing (1:25000 scale).
Durable, closable aluminum housing shields the compass glass, providing protection against scratches and damage.

A solid compass with a metal case, works well in the field, is even accurate and easy to use, great for forest trips or playing with azimuths.
-
For this price, it's a nice thing, quite solid, and it points north quite well for orientation. Sometimes there are slight deviations when measuring by hand, but you can always place it on something flat, and for this price there's nothing to complain about.
-
A compass that is NOT of the worst sort. It's better to pay a bit more and buy this one instead of one for 15 PLN. Compared to the cheaper version, it has a better magnetic needle, which results in less measurement error, which increases with distance. I recommend it.
-
A universal foldable compass with additional features. Mine always points north very well. Solid construction, nothing rattles, everything is nicely and well made. It doesn't take up much space and is foldable, which is a plus.
