Swarovski EL 8.5 x 42 Swarovision binoculars [FOR SALE]

[Mike Hunter]

I've decided to upgrade and am selling these trusty binoculars.

These have been my main pair of binoculars over the years, especially brilliant in low light. They are in excellent condition. I am almost paranoid about looking after optics, I'm also a reluctant lens cleaner (for fear of scratching) meaning these are optically (no marks) and mechanically (smooth) extremely good, with just some limited signs of wear on the bridge.

I bought them new in Feb 2012 for £1,570. I have the original carry case, box, receipt and accessories.

I've had a trade in valuation of £750 (which implies a retail resale in excess of £1,000). Indeed a pair similar to mine are being sold second hand for £1,149 here: SWAROVSKI EL 8.5X42 SV (BR) :: In Focus

I'll part with them for £925 post free. Happy for them to be field tested before purchase. Any new owner will not be disappointed - they are outstanding bins.

Photos are on Birdforum in anyone wants a closer look (in the Classified: For Sale section).

Thanks
