The 2nd pair are the Opticron Marine Pro. web page. These are made in Japan and guaranteed for 30 years. Both these binoculars cost the same. I have product from both companies and I am equally impressed by both. -------------------- Darren WO ZS80FD 10th AV with Vixen Porta Mount Skywatcher Equinox 66ED William Optics 7x50 Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on Which one?
