Optolyth Royal Binoculars 15x63 (1 Viewer)

I have looked for a review of this everywhere, and no luck. Does anybody
know if this is a good binocular for about $ 1300.
My budget is higher, but this may be a good buy.

Thanks Dave

The only place that I know which carries them is Deutsche Optik:

Their price is $1589.00

. I wonder what the minimum IPD with these is if they are genuinely 63 mm aperture?

Some cheap 63 mm roof prism binoculars are actually very undersize but I would think these high-quality ones would be a full 63 mm aperture and also not vignetted inside.

I've always looked out for a second hand example but never seen one for sale.

Dave:

Swarovski is now selling the current 15x56 SLC on closeout in favor
of the new model that is coming.

They are regarded as the best in the current models available in the
US in that size. You may find pricing similar, so I would check that
out.

Thanks for that, though I do want the new SLC 15x56 when it comes out in January.
I need something to hold me over until then.
I have been thinking of getting Zeiss 10x56 Victory T* FL , as it would have a larger field of view
and complement the new SLC.
Thanks Dave

The Optolyth has AK prisms like the new 15x56 Swarovski will have.

My guess is that the Swarovski will cost about 1000 bucks more.
