Bear in mind (as if it's not confusing enough) that Silva (of Sweden) markets their compasses in the USA under the Nexus brand. (As previously mentioned, they also own Brunton of Riverton, Wyoming.)

The "Silva" compasses marketed under that brand name in the USA are actually made by Suunto. (All this is a result of prior contracts and legal obligations concerning the exclusive marketing rights of Silva (Sweden) compasses in the USA.)
