Swarovski 20x60xs Eyepiece
Compatible with ATM/STM, ATS/STS, and CTS spotting scopes, the Swarovski 20x60x eyepiece is ideal for all types of observations. The eyepiece--which offers a full 108-to-60-foot field of view at 1,000 yards--features individually adjustable twist-in eyecups that are removable for cleaning. As a result, the eyepiece works for both traditional users and eyeglass wearers. More significantly, the eyepiece produces luminous, diamond-bright images with edge-to-edge sharpness across the entire magnification range. It's the perfect eyepiece for sporting events, camping, and birdwatching, as it lets you both scan the terrain and identify birds in razor-sharp detail.The eyepiece also features a glass cover that protects against dust and dirt even when the eyepiece is removed. Users will also love the bayonet connector, which makes it easy and quiet to change the eyepiece, and the automatic safety mechanism, which keeps you from accidentally unscrewing the unit. Finally, the lens includes a nonstick Swaroclean coating on the outer surface, which makes it considerably easier to clean objective and eyepiece lenses. The coating--which helps extend the lifespan of your lens--is particularly effective when you need to remove dried-on mineral residues (such as water marks from condensation), insect repellents, and tree resin.About Swarovski OptikAlthough founded in 1949, Swarovski Optik's roots actually trace all the way back to 1895, when Austrian Daniel Swarovski--who invented the world's first electric grinding machine for jewelry stones--established the family-owned Swarovski Crystal in the province of Tyrol. Since then, the name Swarovski has become synonymous worldwide with the clearest crystal, precision grinding, and a brilliant spirit of innovation, as the original enterprise continued branching out into additional lines of business.Swarovski Optik owes its rise to Wilhelm Swarovski, son of the original founder and an avid hobby astronomer, who decided to build his own improved binocular in 1935 at a mere 17 years of age. With access to the specialized glass production and finishing technologies already used to manufacture jewelry stones in his father's factory, Wilhelm managed to develop a novel prism fabrication and grinding process that he applied in constructing his first 6x30 binocular. Wilhelm went on to found Swarovski Optik KG in Absam, Tyrol, in 1949, thus laying the foundation for a sports optics company with a global reputation. His company's first serial product, the Habicht 7x42, is still an industry standard in the field of hunting optics and continues to be produced in the best tradition of its founder.
