Oil bath - yes or no?
Rest assured: all Geonaute compasses are filled with viscous oil to ensure optimal performance.
A more precise and intuitive wide needle
When designing this compass, we chose a wide needle to enable a more accurate and intuitive visual alignment between the needle and the grid lines on the map.
3 steps to follow a direction from \"a\" to \"b\" or take a bearing with a compass
1 - Lay the compass down on the map. Line up the edge of the compass from point A to point B 2 - Turn the rotating bezel until the lines on the baseplate line up with the longitudinal lines 3 - With the compass held nice and flat in the hand and with the arrow pointing in the direction you\'re walking: Turn around until the magnetic needle of the compass is lined up with the north orienting arrow! Let\'s go, you can move forwards by following the direction of travel arrow!
