Anyone have experience with globally balanced compasses? Here's a quote from the Suunto website about their version.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Suunto also makes globally balanced compasses, which can be used accurately in either hemisphere."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does this mean that declination angle does not need to be set and it's still accurate anywhere or is this something different? This globally balanced compass stuff is all new to me and I don't completely understand it. I know on my Suunto M-2 or my Timex Expedition watch/compass (the only two I own that allow for custom delination angle settings) I just look at the map to see my declination angle for my current location and the current year then I set the compass but (and this may be the problem) I really dont know what this exactly means and if it is even any different with a globally balanced compass. Do you still set declination angle on a globally balanced compasse?

Thanks
