## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great compass
*by T***G on 25 January 2024*

I'm doing a navigation qualification and this was the brand and model recommended by the instructor. It's a great compass and I especially value the romer for different map scales (i.e 1:25K & 1:50K are both on the base plate). The lanyard also has lots of different scales and is a nice touch. Finally, the lines on the compass face are really helpful when finding your bearings (not all compasses have that). All in, I am very happy with my purchase.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Silva Compass 4 Mils
*by M***S on 15 August 2024*

This is a quality brand compass and there were no issues with the item.The only issue I have is with the delivery as it was left in the 'STREET'!The Amazon delivery instructions as to the safe location where to leave it were crystal clear but still it was left in the Street at the front gate.Anyone could have just walked off with it.At least they would be able to navigate their way!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent specilist compass
*by C***R on 14 August 2011*

This is a specialist piece of kit with the main reading in Mils that would be unsuitable for teaching beginners to navigate with and is not really necessary for the average hill walker for whom degrees are entirely adequate. It's called "Militaire" for a very good reason!Having taught my son to navigate in degrees using a conventional compass I bought him this one as he plans to join the Army and will need to be familiar with navigating in mils. Like any Silva Compass it is excellent with all the necessary scales etc plus a good long edge for setting course between two points. Although the main (outer) reading is in Mils there is also an inner graticule in degrees. My son has quickly adopted to it and I quite like using it too.It's well made, robust and easy to use with gloves on. In the right hands very accurate navigation is possible but of course in that respect its only as good as the person holding it!
