Suunto MC-2 Global Navigator- USGS version
I selected this version because it has 1:24000 romer scale on the baseplate, which corresponds to the scale on USGS 7.5' topographic maps. I'm in Colorado so the Global needle "drags" a little if I don't angle the compass downward a bit, But that's an easy fix. The clinometer needle also seems to be interfered with by the magnetic needle; but a little jiggling makes it settle into place, also an easy fix. The illuminated graduation dial is very bright and easy to read in the dark. The mirror latch on the baseplate is very solid and actually requires a bit of effort to get it open.
All in all, the compass seems very sturdy and well made. Can't wait to use it in the field.
