Review: No batteries needed - If you spend your time in the outdoors professionally, you probably know about SUUNTO compasses. I used this model when I did land surveying. I was so impressed with the accuracy and quality, it stuck with me and I always intended to obtain one. I recently purchased one to teach my kids how to find their way around the wilderness without electronics. This fits the bill as it's all analogue, no batteries, no motherboard, no apps, no firmware, no big data… just old school use of earth's magnetic poles. The only thing to be aware of is that the compass that the dial sits in a liquid filled chamber. It's is what makes this compass so good, especially when you use the optics to follow a bearing. However, the seals can eventually go if the compass is banged around carelessly. If properly cared for, it should last a lifetime. ## Features - HIGH-PRECISION NAVIGATION – The SUUNTO KB-14 features an optical reading system for highly accurate direction measurements, perfect for field professionals. - DURABLE & RELIABLE – Built with an anodized light-alloy housing and a sapphire bearing, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments. - STABLE OPERATION – Liquid-filled capsule and jewel bearing provide smooth, accurate readings even in extreme conditions (-30°C to +60°C). - PROFESSIONAL-GRADE DESIGN – Trusted by surveyors, engineers, cartographers, and outdoor professionals worldwide for precise navigation. - PORTABLE & VERSATILE – Compact, lightweight, and includes a nylon pouch with a belt loop and a lanyard for easy carrying.

There's also an inner set of graduations along the side of the compass's disk. In the other view, You hold the compass up to one eye while your other eye looks out to your direction. Your two eyes then combine views so your bearing is superimposed on your view. The focus ring adjusts your view of the inner graduations. **Q: How difficult is this to level it in the field to find North? Is there a type that is easy to level? Thanks!** A: It does not need to be perfectly level to work. As long as the numbers viewed through the lens can move, it will work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Customer service is very good *by J***L on December 17, 2025* It is useful, good quality.
