V intage Suunto M-311 Helsinki field compass. I don't know anything about its working condition other than the dial does turn. Measures approx. 2" x 2". Serial #62495. There is an S stamped above the serial number-I found a website that states:"Capital "S" on lower left corner indicates the compass has been used by Suojeluskunta, a national guard of Finland and thus the compass can be timed to be manufactured between years 1936 and 1944."However, I do not know how accurate that is. It does still glow in the dark-I activated it with a black light pen for the picture; it doesn't hold for a long time though. Shows wear from age and there is dust between the lenses. Please see all pictures for complete description, thanks!
