Steiner 7x50 Navigator Pro 7655

i bought 7-50 navigator with steiner float strap. first off at the prices these people charge i was worried i might get some china knock offs. i took about 3 days before they sent response that they were shipping and i had them 2 days later. perfect new sealed box , as advertised. these bins have wonderful clarity, and i went out after dark and was surprised by there light gathering ability. i can only say are built like a tank. and are a bit heavy to hold for extended periods of time. the float strap is nice in that when you put it in the case that comes with them it perfectly wraps around three of the four sides giving them an extra bit of padding incase they get knocked around on the boat. i did test with strap and they will float binos. and no leakage occurred ,or fogging of lenses.i feel confident these will last avery long time.

I tried the Commanders but they were not in my budget. The Navigator Pros are every bit amazing. My friends thought I was nuts for wanting these but when they looked through them they were all very impressed.

I've given up on lower priced, mass market glasses and I'm glad I finally purchased these. The magnification and clarity for use on the water is superb. Having had other brands with compass and built in light, I chose these for their ruggedness, clarity and basic function and I am not disappointed. My online retailer included the floating Steiner Clic-Cloc Floating Strap (S7680), which adds comfort to these glasses which are slightly heavier than others.

As a retired professional land surveyor and now an active ships captain l know the value of excellent optics, that is why I chose Steiner.
