Product description Suunto MCB NH Mirror
Suunto factory & headquarters in Vantaa Finland are now using 100% renewable energy. This means that all of the Suunto products, that are Made in Finland, are also made with 100% renewable, carbon neutral energy. In 2021 that was 85% of all Suunto products. This is a great addition to Suunto’s endeavor to minimize their emissions which they do by manufacturing high-quality, long-lasting products.
Accurate and Reliable Mirror Compasses:
- The MC range of mirror compasses provides an invaluable tool for those who place a particular premium on accurate and reliable directional measurements; for example surveyors, miners, architects, rescue patrols, hikers, boaters and the military. The declination adjustment system, standard throughout the range, is especially useful when working in areas of large magnetic variation, while the sighting notch provides superior accuracy. The MC-2 model is also available with the Global Balancing System.
Field compasses in general:
- Mechanical compasses have been working as the navigator since several thousands of years.
- Still today magnetic compass is environmentally friendly, cheap and the most reliable tool when choosing the course. The oldest Suunto field compasses, which are still in use, are manufactured in 1938. A high quality field compass hardly needs any other service than washing in fresh water from time to time. The compass works without any external power supply. The compass gets its power from nature – from the magnetic north pole.
COMPASS BALANCING:
- Two Geographical Balancing Zones
The vertical intensity and direction of the earths magnetic field, the inclination, influences the horizontal plane of a compass needle according to the latitude where it is used. Due to inclination, compasses must be balanced for different geographical zones in order to keep the needle in a horizontal position.
- Previously, the globe was divided into five different balance zones in which specific compasses functioned. However, as people travel more and more, the need for a compass with a greater geographical range has increased. Thanks to Suuntos Two Zone System there are only two balance zones to consider in compass use - the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. In practice, this means that a Suunto compass designed for the northern hemisphere will still work for a fair distance into the southern hemisphere, and vice-versa.

Hello, I would order the plate compass A30, in addition I want a light mirror compass, I doubt this one or the one from Silva (with the plate compass included). Which do you recommend? Greetings Bart
Answer of Kai
The compass is super light and comes very close to the BW compass in terms of handling and functionality (bearings, number of marches, etc.). I also use it in the water on a swimming buoy, but it´s great for that. The only thing is that it doesn´t fluoresce.
Nh means northern hemisphere

Hi, I would like to ask if the Compass is for the Northern Hemisphere or both since the nomenclature on the suunto page means Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. I need a compass that works on both. Thank you
Hello! yes, it is for the Northern hemisphere, and we do not any compass that serves you for both hemispheres sorry...thanks for your question!
