Those are like 2011 era Swarovski 8x42 or 10x42 WB HD's and not EL's. I'm not sure how or why they would have an EL focus knob but they are definitely not EL's.

Here is a review from 2011, I wish they were 8.5x42 EL's because I'd have bought them off of you.

Gear Review: Swarovski SLC 10x42 W B HD | Ireland's Wildlife

When it comes to binoculars the name Swarovski Optik needs no introduction. Along with Leica and Zeiss the Austrian company is pushing the boundaries of optical perfection, and many agree that it currently has a slight edge on its high-end rivals. In mid 2010 Swarovski introduced a new model to…

I will double check with Swarovski and the dealer I bought them from. I will update when I find something out.

Those are SLC, the ELS have a double bridge, those look to be 2010-2012 SLC binoculars as stated by nphunter.

Those are the SLC HD’s, and I don’t believe these were configured in 8.5. I believe they were only 8 or 10X42. This whole thing is bizarre

I’m always watching for 8.5x42 EL’s in the classifieds and will buy a pair eventually as a chest bino to replace my Razors. When I saw yours I was excited about the price and condition and was trying to figure out how to buy them without my wife noticing After looking closer and realizing they weren’t EL’s I just wanted to comment to let you know and to keep someone else from buying them thinking they were EL’s. It’s awesome the dealer took them back, seems like the best case scenario.

I’m happy it worked out well for you. I have a new pair of NL14’s arriving this Friday in the mail and am super excited. I sold a pair of Meopta 15’s and a Swaro ATC scope to buy them.

Enjoy the new binos!

I definitely lucked out that it was resolved so easily. I legitimately lost sleep over it last night haha. Thanks for the heads up though and you will love the 14’s they’re amazing
