Not Sure.
This little thing showed up today. After dark, of course, so I will post my thoughts on their optical performance tomorrow. For now I can comment on the build quality.
When I first picked them up, I expected them to feel lighter in my hand because they are so small. Not heavy by any means, but there is a little heft to them that gives them a feeling of quality, or at least not an El Cheapo type of feel. Close focus is nice, and even in the house, the view looks good.
Nice case. Seems a bit large for such small binos, but it is well made, and will serve it's purpose. No lens caps. I always find it irritating when a manufacture doesn't include caps.
Really goofy fake leather neck strap that will never be installed. The binos are perfect for a quick detach wrist strap, like I use on many of my binoculars.
The focus wheel is smooth, and has a nice resistance to it, I would have preferred it was on the side of the bridge facing me, but it's fine where it is. It just forces me to use my middle or ring finger on it. On second thought, it's a little annoying, but i can live with it.
It appears to be very clean internally. Shining a flashlight into the objective reals no dust specks, or any oil or glue blobs.
Tomorrow's weather looks to be halfway decent, so I will add some daytime observations after some time with them outdoors. Here's a quick pick of the little thing.
I got these to be a go anywhere, won't cry too much if i drop them off a cliff, dont worry too much if I hand them to someone, pocketable kind of binocular.
