Focus wheel (1 Viewer)

Hello everyone and happy New Year. I am looking for a new pair of 8 x 42 bins. Currently I have an older set of Leica Trinovid 10 x 42 BN that I love but sometimes I feel I could use a pair of 8 x 42’s. I am looking in the $600 and below range. One of my requirements is the focus wheel needs to turn clockwise to infinity like the Leica’s and also have close focusing. I was looking at the Kowa but they focus opposite from what I am used to. If someone has some recommendations I would appreciate it. Thanks
 
I own Vortex Vipers, they focus clockwise to infinity and have a 6 ft close focus. They are optically excellent and cost around $490 new.
