Silva Expedition Map Compass - 37448

The advanced Expedition map compass by Silva, designed in Sweden, was created for demanding users seeking a precise and versatile tool for field navigation.

 

photoluminescent signs on a rotating dial

Equipped with photoluminescent markings on the rotating bezel, needle, and transparent baseplate, it greatly facilitates data reading in low-light conditions. This model also includes a magnifying glass, rulers measuring 90 mm and 1.8 inches, a pendulum clinometer, and a flexible lanyard with scales of 1:25,000 and 1:50,000. The rotating bezel features a non-slip grip made of DryFlex rubber for a secure hold in all conditions.

Romer scale, magnetic declination correction

The Expedition can be used both as a map compass and for taking bearings. Thanks to the Romer scale, it facilitates cooperation with GPS devices, and the magnetic declination adjustment option allows it to be effectively used anywhere in the world.

    This compass really stands out. Compared to cheaper models, the needle finds north very quickly – I was positively surprised. The dial is very precise and can be operated easily even with gloves. The slight resistance when turning is a big plus. All the features that improve working with maps have been perfectly refined.

    All my map compasses are Silva products and I knew this model would be the biggest. It's never let me down. All the elements on the ruler are essential for quick use of the map. The original scale on the lanyard is also a plus.

    This is probably one of the best Silva compasses. Often, more expensive models with many features do not perform well, but this one works brilliantly when working with maps and in orienteering. It is solid and precise. I definitely recommend it.

    I've been using it for three years and it hasn't let me down once. Very precise, exceptionally comfortable and simple to use. A definite plus is the illustrations that help you quickly orient yourself on the map, regardless of whether you have MGRS or UTM divisions. Light and easy to carry – there’s always room for it in your pocket. The scale on the lanyard is also a useful option, as it lets you quickly estimate distances. Although it's more expensive, I think the quality is worth the price. It's worth it!

    At this price, you won't find a better compass; even more expensive models or products from other brands don't match its quality. It determines north very quickly and accurately – you don’t have to wait long for the needle to stabilise as with other compasses. Additionally, the side ruler makes map work easier.

    Excellent map compass – indicates directions perfectly. The scales are adapted to different map scales. It can also be used as a ruler, and the lanyard is handy to always have it at hand. Worth its price, bought on recommendation – now I can recommend it to others myself.

    This is a top-of-the-range compass. The price reflects the quality. The compass is very sensitive and excellent for working with a map. Very clear and easy to read. The rubber feet prevent it from sliding on the map case or film.

    The compass is worth its price, it finds the set direction very quickly. The difference in quality is immediately noticeable compared to cheaper models from other brands. The anti-slip pads are a plus. It is worth investing in this equipment. I recommend it.

    It hasn't yet had a chance to be tested during an expedition, but compared to my other compasses (including one for diving), it shows the right direction. Very good quality product. I recommend both the compass and the shop.
