Mirror compass in sturdy plastic housing.
With the Suunto MB-6, you don't have to think upside down when taking bearings, because the mirror is underneath the compass and not on the bearing. The graduation of the rose is in 360° degrees. When open, the compass has an 11 cm long bearing edge and sighting line. The Suunto MB-6 G has a declination correction by means of an enclosed mini screwdriver. On the back of the mirror you will find a conversion table that allows you to convert the degrees read from the inclinometer into slope percentages. The Suunto MB-6 comes with a cord, key for declination adjustment and detailed instructionsSUUNTO is RECTAMany of you are familiar with the Swiss Recta compass, the classic from the military. Many of you have probably also noticed the similarity between RECTA compasses and SUUNTO compass models. There is a simple reason for this: RECTA was taken over by SUUNTO in 1996. However, the compasses continued to be produced for a long time under the RECTA brand and with the Swiss coat of arms. Today, all of these compasses are manufactured in Finland by SUUNTO, one of the world's largest manufacturers of precision measuring instruments such as diving instruments, sport function watches and also compasses. RECTA, or SUUNTO, supplies the armies of Switzerland, Austria and Canada with its compasses. The RECTA compasses produced by SUUNTO have been marketed under the SUUNTO brand for a short time now.
