Sometimes you can just pick up an object and you know it is well made. The Silva Lensatic 360 Compass is one of those objects.

The body is very solidly built aluminum. The pieces fit together well, and, most importantly, the hinges for the cover and the magnifying glass don't feel cheap, like they will snap off with repeated use.

The compass itself works great and "centers" in only a few seconds. The crystal is engraved with two sighting lines, so no worries about these lines wearing off over time. The bezel luminesces well at night.

The bottom line is that this is a great lower end compass at a great price and this guy will be in my pack for years to come.

I wanted a good compass for a reasonable price and this compass is perfect for me. Unlike my previous experience with compasses, it is very easy to use. I was impressed with how rugged the case is. This compass will come with me on all my hikes.

Well built, accurate compass for those times when the batteries in your GPS are dead, or you just want to bushwhack old school. Leave the GPS at home, then try to find the shortcut through your favorite swamp or forest using this tough and user friendly navigation tool. If you get lost, blame it on Darwinism, not the Silva Lensatic 360 you should have with you !!! };>{>
