  • The 8x42 Diamondback binocular focuses smoothly on the fine details you prize as an outdoor enthusiast. Diamondback eyecups are built on a rock-solid frame with a tapered style for a more natural fit at your eye. Covered with tried-and-true rubber for cushioned comfort, these retractable eyecups promise years of relaxed viewing.

    Exceptional viewing for nature observation

    True to the Diamondback's namesake, this rugged 8x42 binocular is striking in how well it detects life in harsh environments. Searching out wildlife at twilight is most effective with binoculars that pierce through the growing darkness and shadowy brush. That bright viewing is now possible with the Diamondback ... a binocular that keeps you on the lookout from the first rays of day to the last!
  • Phase corrected prisms deliver sharp, greatly contrasted images.
  • BaK-4 prisms provide sharp images from one edge of the broad viewing field to the other.
  • Fully multi-coated optics increase light transmission for higher image quality in all lighting conditions.

    Full size value - terrific at twilight

    Consider the snake with its coat of tough, durable scales - this same ruggedness is found in the finely textured armor worn by the Diamondback. This protective coating also gives you a sure grip that is easy to handle even when fingers grow numb in the cold.

    The 8x42 Diamondback offers great value, wide-field viewing, and easy handling in any situation with steady 8x magnification. Whether your adventure takes you across rocky, sand-carved terrain, or into the high timber of the Rockies, you can trust the rock solid performance of the Diamondback binocular.
  • Complete waterproofing with tight O-ring sealing locks out any concern over blowing dust or driving rains.
  • Complete fogproofing keeps internal lenses clear in humid habitats, or as you go from one temperature extreme to the other.
