All Oberwerk binoculars have rugged rubber-armored metal bodies, all-glass lenses, right ocular diopter adjustment, brass 1/4-20 tripod adapter threading, case, caps, and strap.

Not only do you get big 60mm objectives- you get the same highest-quality BAK4 prisms that are found in much more expensive models. These are available in your choice of either 9x, 12x, 15x, or 20x magnification. All air-to-glass surfaces are fully coated to decrease light loss due to scattering and reflections. Objectives have highest-quality green/purple broadband multi-coatings, typically only found on binoculars with much higher price tags.

Oberwerk high-quality 60mm binoculars- at a 50mm price! That extra 10mm doesn't sound like very much- but 60mm objectives gather 30% more light than 50mm models (surface area = pi*r2). With that much extra light-gathering power, these are ideal for a low-cost entry into binocular astronomy. They are also excellent for birding, nautical applications, and surveillance.

    When I first tried out the Oberwerk 12x60 binoculars I was surprised at how light they are considering the big lenses. The rubber armor on this binocular makes for a real comfortable grip and they have that feeling of a well designed and manufactured product. These really are a super buy at a reasonable price although I would recommend you buy a better case for them. The one that it came with is cheap and flimsy.

    Such good quality for a low price. I really like the Oberwerk binoculars they are really well made.
