Bird watchers will love the Leupold® Golden Ring 10x 42mm Binoculars, which feature outstanding clarity and color for positive identifications. These binoculars are not only small and lightweight, but they are also tough, waterproof, and wilderness-ready. Well-designed and built solid, they are waterproof and fog-proof, with bright, sharp sight pictures.
These Leupold Golden Ring binoculars offer a crisp, bright sight picture, generous eye relief, and twist-up three-position eyecups. The ergonomic design makes the binoculars easy to grip, and with a good in-hand fit, they actually become more comfortable the longer you hold them. And Leupold's signature brown armor coating ensures that the binoculars will withstand even the most rugged conditions.
These phase-coated, roof-prism binoculars also feature Leupold's exclusive Index Matched Lens System - each lens coating is matched specifically to the type of glass and the lens placement in the binocular. The result is a standard of brightness, clarity, and color fidelity like you have never seen before. Superb close focus allows you to focus distances as near as 4.9 feet so even butterfly aficionados can use these outstanding binoculars. A wide perspective gives you a view of up to 327 feet at 1,000 yards for quick acquisition of birds on a branch or on the wing. Finally, the interpupillary distance-lock feature locks in the distance between your eyes, so no adjustments are necessary during use and you can easily use your binoculars one-handed. Full lifetime guarantee.
From humble immigrant beginnings, Leupold grew, based on a promise of quality, to become a classic American company. In 1907, Fred Leupold set up a one-man shop at 5th and Oak streets in Portland, Ore., to repair surveying equipment. He was joined by his brother-in-law, Adam Voelpel, and later by inventor John Cyprian Stevens, and the foundations for a century of success were in place.
During Leupold's second half-century, the company has focused heavily on the sports optics business. Leupold's presence in the hunting and shooting market expands, and finally dominates, with innovative optics and features that are now legendary among hunters, shooters, and outdoors enthusiasts. Many of the industry's standards - nitrogen waterproofing, the Duplex® reticle, and more - are Leupold creations.
