Iris teak gift box


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.
- Outstanding legibility
of the card, with one-degree graduations
- 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 20°
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.
- Built-in photoluminescent
lighting : completely maintenance-free, impervious to corrosion, operates
without batteries or radio-active tritium.
- Course reading from
above the compass : you can read your compass like a standard compass, with
no need to look through the prism.

WHY CHOOSE AN IRIS COMPASS?
Hand compasses specifically
designed to take accurate bearings comfortably, whatever the type of navigation
and the weather conditions.
- Card stability : the
magnetic cell has been specially engineered to guarantee optimum reading.
The card remains stable whatever the yachtsman's position and remains non
affected by the heeling ange of the sail boat or the shocks and vibrations
of the power boat.
- Card graduation : every
1° on Iris 50 ; every 5 ° on Iris 100.
- Lubber lines on Iris
50 and Iris 100 : contribute to an easier reading and avoid parallax errors.
- The expansion diaphragm
prevents the formation of bubbles, and guarantees the optimum performance
of Iris compasses, regardless of temperature and air pressure fluctuations.
- Ergonomic handling.
- Innovative design and
choice of vibrant colors for the Iris 50 and Iris 100 : a hand bearing often
becomes a personal object, so it might as well be elegant !
Hand bearing compasses
intended for use on all types of boats : dinghies, racing boats, cruisers,
pneumatic boats, power day-boats, fast power crafts and power cruisers.
