This is an outstanding compass, easy to use and solid as a rock. You do NOT need to order the tritium version that costs $40 more, the marks on this compass will glow for hours with just a quick shine with a flashlight.

I bought this to replace a 40 year old "Silva" that had seen better days. I looked at Brunton, Suunto, and Silva before deciding on the Cammenga. The damping on the needle (card) is absolutely dead-on and rock solid. The quality of this compass can't be beat by any other compass today. I agree with the other reviewers about not getting the tritium version.
The phosphorescent version is the same compass but without the added cost of the tritium. Added to the bullet proof build quality is that it is waterproof, works at 50 below zero (F), highly legible, does not need liquid (that can discolor and leak) for damping (it uses induction damping instead). This is the same version as standard US military issue, but without the tritium.
You will not be disappointed when you use this compass. The old adage is still true, you do get what you pay for. One more note, most of the Brunton and Silva compasses are Chinese.... get the US made Cammenga instead; you'll... Read more

I purchased this for my husband for Christmas. He was stunned! He had recently gone out west Elk Hunting with a buddy who had served in the US Military. His buddy used one of these Compasses to navigate the area they hunted. It is extremely accurate and the bonus of this one is that the dial glows in the dark.

This review is from: Garmin eTrex Legend C Waterproof Hiking GPS (Electronics)
Two months ago my family and I joined about 2.3 million others in leaving the Texas Gulf Coast as Hurricane Rita came our way. The road system could not handle that much traffic and a 3 hour drive turned into a 16 hour nightmare. Roads were clogged beyond capacity and I used a county map to navigate along back roads (gravel, shell, dirt and cowpath) to get ahead of a few thousand cars stopped on highways. That worked fine until the map ran out. Then we were stuck in traffic and melting heat. As we sat there I saw other people using nearby roads with confidence and I assumed they had better maps than I did. I was right, but their maps were on their GPS devices. The decision to buy a GPS was made then and there.
I did a lot of research trying to decide which device I wanted to buy and soon found myself lost in a sea of varying opinions. Right after reading a review that extolled the virtues of one unit I would read another that completely trashed it. Eventually I... Read more

I bought my Legend C the moment it was available and replaced my original legend so that I could get the autorouting and 24mb . I found that it also replaced my GPS V with 19MB. The MB is critical since you need to load the detaoled City Select maps in order to get address to address guidance. It is great to arrive at the airport, pick up your car and have turn by turn guidance to your destination, hotel or restaurant address and phone numbers in the palm of your hand!
The City Select software is very expensive - but it is exceptional and probably the best available at any cost. The smallest hotels and auto repair shops are listed and directions take only a few seconds. I used a copy of Europe Metroguide 6 on a trip but it would not autoroute and the PC generated route was frustrating to follow. Perhaps I will get the City Select Europe soon, despite the cost.
