Celebrating 130 years as the Gold Standard of compasses!  Since 1894, Brunton has been building the world's best transits, and this special gold-colored edition honors that long tradition.  Built with all of the functionality and features of traditional Brunton pocket transits, the Standard Transit features a hard-anodized aluminum body and a flat base with a non-slip silicone insert.  The Standard Transit is also available in orange, blue, or silver.  Made in Wyoming, USA.  

The special edition Gold Standard Transit comes with a high-quality Gfeller leather case.
