Suunto M-9 Compass

Features

1. Compact Wrist-Mounted Design — Straps directly to your wrist for hands-free navigation while you keep both hands on trekking poles, paddles, or a rifle.
2. Liquid-Filled Capsule — Damped fluid capsule settles the needle fast and holds a steady bearing even on the move over rough terrain.
3. Northern Hemisphere Balancing — Compass card is balanced for the Northern Hemisphere so the needle tracks true without dragging or sticking.
4. Luminescent Compass Card — Glow-in-the-dark markings let you read your heading in low light and after dark once charged by ambient light.
5. Side-Reading Window — Dedicated side window lets you take and hold a bearing while sighting toward a distant landmark or target.
6. Ratcheting Directional Bezel — Positive-click rotating bezel sets your desired direction and stays locked so your heading won't drift.
7. Adjustable Velcro Strap — 12 in (31 cm) hook-and-loop strap fits over bare wrists, gloves, or jacket sleeves and detaches for map work.
8. Wide Operating Range — Rated from -30°C to +60°C (-22°F to +140°F) and water resistant for use across seasons and conditions.
9. No Battery Required — Fully mechanical operation means it's always ready with nothing to charge or replace in the field.
10. Made in Finland — Built by Suunto with the fit and finish that put this compass on military NSN rolls worldwide.
