The Iris 50 compass is clear evidence that a sturdy marine compass no longer needs to look austere.
● Good protection against hard knocks: the smooth finish feels soft in your hand, and it will not slip, even if it is wet.
● No parallax error : a prism projects the reading of the bearing to infinity. This also contributes to a more comfortable operation, as you do not need to alternate close-reading to read the card and infinite-reading to take bearings.
● Optimum conditions to take bearings, thanks to the superb card stability and the wide 20º field of view, which will accommodate the roughest sea conditions.
● Most accurate bearing : the pivot and very hard stone are a guarantee of long life and shock resistance of your compass.
● Soft bottom cell : engineered using ultra-sonic welding, it acts like an expansion diaphragm, preventing the formation of bubbles and leaks.
● Course reading from above the compass : you can read your compass like a standard compass, with no need to look through the prism.
