“I work as a wildlife guide in the polar regions and Africa all year and decided to buy these binoculars in particular for bird and polar bear spotting and sadly very disappointed. The actual optics are incredible as I knew they would be however I am very dissatisfied with the actual quality of the binocular. Within three days the first eye piece cover fell off,two days later the other one was lost. Within a month the Swarovski label fell off. Since then the actual eye pieces come disattached from the main body quite regularly so expect to lose one any day soon. For the money they are, it is exceptional disappointing to realise they are no better built and hard wearing than ones costing a fraction of the cost.”
