Silva Arc Jet

"The Arc Jet from Silva offers a world-class compass, ideal for ambitious runners and orienteers. With its new capsule and innovative Jet 2.0 needle, it guarantees maximum transparency and visibility of all map details, without distracting scales in the compass socket. The needle has been specially designed to ensure a perfect balance between speed and stability, making it an indispensable companion for fast navigation. Tested by elite orienteering pilots, the Arc Jet offers first-class performance in terms of speed, settling time and needle stability."
"The compass is available for both the left and right hand and can be individually adjusted. The thumb base plate with its unique cut-out ensures optimum contact between thumb and map. For the classic thumb grip, the attachable thumb plate can be added with a simple click. The adjustable thumb straps, in soft and firm versions, are rubberized on the inside and guarantee a secure and comfortable fit"
"For users who want to use map sticks for distance measurement, stickers for the base plate are included in the scope of delivery. The Arc Jet compass comes with four different scales: 1:15k, 1:10k, 1:7.5k and 1:4k. Optionally, the compass can be combined with the Arc Zoom-magnifier, which can be easily attached to the base plate and enables the map to be read quickly and accurately. This feature is particularly useful when every second counts and integrates seamlessly into the functional design of the compass."
