I have a friend that is looking to move his 2004 Swarovski Optik EL 8.5x42 Binoculars and I could pretty much move my Zeiss Conquests and get the Swarovski's for about $400 more. Would this be a good move? How would the optics compare? I can't really do a side by side comparison immediately since he lives about 2 hours north, so I would like to get some feedback.
What do you guys think? His Swarovski's are in beautiful shape with original box, case, documentation, etc.
My initial thoughts are that the coating on the Zeiss could make them a better optic compared to the older Swaro's.. but I really want a pair of Swaros and have always loved the clarity.
