I just bought a set of these binoculars. They have got to be the best binoculars i have ever looked through. For the money you can’t beat them. I have looked through Leica, swarovski, and nikon, and I believe these are every bit as good if not better.

Beware of these binoculars.

The optics are good but there seems to be a fundamental problem with the compass.

On the first pair, the compass was very blurry and unable to be read with the binoculars horizontal.

These were sent back.

Not only did the compass of the replacement pair have exactly the same problem,it had the additional problem of sticking badly as the binos were moved, even if the movement was slow and in the horizontal plane.

I would be very wary of buying these without being able to check them first.
