My wife and I received new binoculars for Moms and Dads Days and as a result we are selling four binoculars. I have priced them individually, but I could find a price reduction if someone wants to buy 2, 3, or all 4.
Here's the skinny on each:
• Bushnell 10X25 Waterproof-Fog proof binoculars with strap and case. The field of View is 303 ft @1000 yards. They feature independently adjusted ocular lenses so that you can adjust for differences in sight for each eye. These lightweight and compact binoculars are absolutely like new condition and for $35, you can get these for less than half of the cost of new ones.
• Bausch & Lomb Legacy 10x50 binoculars with wide-angle Porro prism binocular. Highly regarded for their solid build and bright views, these vintage-style binoculars feature BaK-4 prisms and multi-coated optics. They are rated excellent options for astronomy, birdwatching, and general outdoor observation. These binoculars feature independently adjusted ocular lenses so that you can adjust for differences in sight for each eye. At 10X50 magnification and objective lens, these are definitely heavier than smaller and foreign-made binoculars, but with the neck strap, they are quite manageable for a day in the outdoors.
Specs and Features:
• Magnification & Objective: 10x magnification with large 50mm objective lenses for excellent light-gathering in low-light conditions.
• Field of View: Classic models advertised a wide 7.5° field of view, giving a panoramic view of the night sky or wide landscapes.
• Optics: Equipped with BaK-4 glass and multi-coated lenses to enhance color fidelity, contrast, and brightness.
• Design: Traditional Porro prism shape with durable rubber armor and a center-focus wheel
Absolutely in like-new condition, with B&L neck strap, lens covers, and case. These are priced to sell at less than half of the new cost for only $75.
• Bushnell Sportview 10x50 wide-angle binoculars are often sought after by birdwatchers, hunters, and sports enthusiasts. These feature fully coated optics and a convenient center "Insta Focus" lever for quick capture of whatever you’re looking at.
Specs and Features:
• Magnification: 10x
• Objective Lens Diameter: 50 mm
• Field of View (FOV): 375 feet at 1000 yards
• Focusing System: Insta Focus lever for fast adjustments
• Optics: Porro prism lenses that are fully coated lenses for anti-reflection
Absolutely like-new condition with lens cover, neck strap, and hard-shell locking case. I’ve priced them at $50 for a quick sale.
• ‘Vintage’ (which means that I don’t know how old these are) Bausch and Lomb binoculars. These were made for the ‘Greatest Generation’ and were handed down to me by a friend who’s father handed them down to him. I’m guessing that these were made in the 40s or 50s, by virtue of the quality of machining and leather carrying case. These binoculars include a leather strap for the binoculars, and a leather carrying case with leather strap. The objective lens appears to be ~45 mm and I’m guessing the magnification is either 7X or 8X. As to value, on-line sellers are listing these in lower condition anywhere from $65 to $135 dollars. They have been kept in a cabinet for over 20 years and I simply don’t use them. I’ve listed them for $50 for the person valuing the history of these as well as the person wanting a lightweight and compact binocular from Bausch and Lomb.
