Message: <blockquote data-quote="SeldomPerched" data-source="post: 3842558" data-attributes="member: 146041">Michael,Thank you for an extremely clear and informative comparison of these instruments.  I think you must be a triple agent, working for all three German-speaking companies as the effect of your comparison is that I wouldn't mind going out and buying every one of these binoculars...Seriously speaking, your comparison shows how good they all are, depending as usual which particular features suit the individual user's handling and tastes best.But talking to my local dealer who has visited the Swarovski factory, dealt with a few repairs under warranty, also some where the owner freely admitted damage was his own fault but the manufacturer still made  no repair charge, I get the feeling that Swarovski's attention to quality control and service back up is the most impressive of all the makes.That's not to say that the others are necessarily below par on these counts, of course.Tom</blockquote>
