Welcome to Cloudy Nights, Tom
THAT'S A OF A START FOR ANY BINOCULAR ASTRONOMER!
Although I already had 4 bins when I joined Cloudy Nights late last year, it was Cloudy Nights that informed my decision to buy the Garrett Optical 15x70 Signature. And my first post also expressed the same thanks to CN members.
Ron Harper's comment is good:

That's a big serious bino, and if it's your first instrument, there will be some time on the learning curve of finding best focus, locating objects, and getting around in the sky.
I started binocular astronomy with the Brunton Eterna 15x51 in December 2005. There is indeed a learning curve. But I stuck to it, and in no time I got my first view of the Andromeda Galaxy. I was really happy.
Clear Skies!
Todd
