Silva says

The ever so popular SILVA Ranger series has gone through a face-lift with updated colours and updated graphics. SILVA’s Ranger features DryFlex™ grip for easy handling and comes with a use-anywhere declination scale inside the capsule, a magnifying lens, and base plate map-measuring in mm and scales of 1:50,000 and 1:25,000. A go-anywhere tool for serious compass users.

The new graphics contain a more distinct arrow (Ranger) and also a more contemporary font. The colours change to green and black to harmonize with the other outdoor assortment. If you are looking for a basic but yet functional compass for your outdoor adventure, Ranger should be your choice. Thanks to the magnifier, you can make sure to see every detail on the map. Our Ranger S mirror sighting compass should be your choice when you must determine direction over long distances. Because you needn’t lift your eyes from the compass in order to look into the terrain, the direction determined with the SILVA 1-2- 3 System® becomes more accurate.

Our Verdict

The Ranger is a high-quality standard compass with magnifying lens scales and luminous details. It is the most widely sold compass for all activities. It includes full instructions, including the “1-2-3 Go” system, which is the one we all use. This version of the Ranger features distinct and easier-to-read graphics.
