Geovids rule - Leica Geovid-R 10x42mm Rangefinder Binoculars

I purchased these Leica Geovid 10x42mm Rangefinder binoculars around 15 years ago for around $3K The price now has come down a ton since then. They have been worth every penny over the years. I did have a major drop with them about seven years ago and sent them back and they repaired them back to new for NO CHARGE! My weakness is for high end optics and you are not going to get anything better. I own all kinds of optics from Nikon, Vortex, Leopold, Steiner, and even Swarovski, you will not find a better set of glasses for less than $2K. A good rule of thumb is that you pretty much get what you pay for with optics.

On the negative end I do with they had the lens covers like the Steiner's have, the button to use the laser rangefinder would be nice if it were on the right side. I also like how the Steiner's use the rubber eye shades. I have lost a few protective lens covers over the years but have managed to keep the lens free from scratches.

I would buy these again, great customer service, outstanding quality.
