Hard to find made in Japan 8x28 Vipers. These weigh less than 12 ounces, have HD glass and have a wide fov. They also have longer eyecups than the diamondbacks which are basically toys compared to these. In excellent shape. $225 tyd.
These are the best values in binos. Made in Japan unlike Vipers and Monarch 7s which are Chinese. They blow both of those away and even have a locking diopter. Plus backed by Leupold. They’re right up there with binos costing 1k.
Good deal here. Hard to find high quality Made in Japan binos with a locking diopter at that price. Most everything in that price is Chinese now. Plus the Leupold warranty. I have a pair and they’re awfully nice.
Kowa makes the best spotting scopes and their binos are really nice too. These are their newest models and have the widest field of view in their class. They are also very light (22 oz) and compact for a 10x42 so they are perfect for hunting. These are brand new with box and all accessories...
Just saw this posted on Birdforum.net as a reply to me posting link to this post their. Birders favor 8x42s for wider fov and brightness than 10x42 so thought someone there might be interested.

That’s a great deal. I’d snatch them up if 10x42. They’ve been getting great reviews from the birders who are ultra picky. They say they have the same optics as the Meostars which are supposed to be replaced by a more expensive model next year.
Scheels in Johnston CO, 970-663-7800. Has a brand new pair of Noctovid 10x42s for $1,799 and will ship them. These sell for $2,799 normally. The gal I talked to said the only reason for 1k off is they been in the optics case since the store opened. A friend had these and they are amazing. Was...
The MeoPros were originally assembled in Long Island. The moved to Florida and back to the Czech Republic for economic reasons. Would like to hear some reviews of the new MeoPro Airs. Nice looking binos. Also Meopta is working on a B2 which will be their top of the line when it comes out.
Doug, how do the 10x32 and 10x42 compare with ease of eye placement and viewing? I’m not concerned about the brightness difference. I prefer 32 mm binos because of the size and weight but have found some 10x32s tough to get a nice view out of. Thanks
