7x50 Navigator Pro Binoculars with 7X Magnification, High Contrast Optics, Floating Prism System, Sports-Auto Focus, Delivers Excellent Image Clarity, with Compass

Wow! I'm totally impressed. The build of these are unreal. Yes, they have some weight to them, but it's substance. The optics are really bright and clear. I had to adjust each eye-piece separately as my eyes aren't the greatest as I get older. The compass card is huge and easy to read, especially with the red LED night light. What a substantial set of optics. I had considered cheaper alternatives but the reviews convinced me to go with the real deal the first time, else I go through multiple purchases of cheap substitutes. These will no doubt outlive me; the case is great and I will eventually opt for the floating strap once I get out on the water this spring. I was following several pairs on eBay but the ending price of the auctions for used binoculars was so high that I figured brand new would be the way to go. I don't regret this purchase at all. This is a worthy investment as I plan on doing even more sailing where I'll need to read buoys and channel markers, take bearings, and look for shoals and rocks. I like to navigate by paper chart and do my own plotting and cross-bearings, relying on electronics as little as possible. If you take the plunge on these you'll never look back; these will definitely be going ashore with me so they don't "grow legs" while I'm off the boat. I could not justify the extra expense of the Commanders and didn't really want the rangefinder reticle to take up my whole viewfinder, as it is, the compass doesn't really block the image much. If these aren't military grade, I don't know what is. No buyer's remorse here!

A little heavy but the legendary STEINER quality is there.

Always wanted the Steiner military commander with compass but could not afford it. This is the civilian version for boaters much less expensive. They are heavy and bulky but do not feel heavy when holding to view through. These binoculars will out live me and the image is as good as it gets. My main use is watching the Bald eagles on my lake.

Oh my, I have never looked through binoculars of this quality. I am amazed, they are by far worth it. Throughout the other 2 pair I wasted money on from Amazon

Easy viewing for a complete amateur. They are a little heavy, but this is not an issue for me. Exactly what I wanted.

Great binoculars all around, waited 30 years to buy, I bought a cheap Chinese imitation first, steiner is definitely superior.

Prior to purchasing these binoculars, I did a thorough online research on it & its closest competitor, Nikon’s OceanPro. I had a few reservations particularly due to the price differences between the two. Doing a cursory side-by-side comparison they have several features in common. Each one has their own pro & cons and it’s up to the end user to ultimately decide which features best suits their needs. However, I would argue that more importantly are the practical features that do not appear on each of their description, mainly “Personal fit”. What I found based on a hands-on assessment is that the Steiner Navigator Pro was a better choice for me. The Steiner Navigator Pro was much easier to use, has better “Eye Distance/Relief”, as well as better “Interpupillary Adjustment”. No matter how many adjustments I nor the salesperson tried neither one of us couldn’t obtain a clear lens convergence with the Nikon OceanPro. Which made them for all intent purposes non-usable. I didn’t have that issue with the Steiner. They are built like a tank, and they can handle any austere situation you may throw at them. This design hasn’t changed since they were first developed in 2015. They been tried & tested and are the benchmark that all others competitors use and aspire to beat. That’s why military services around the world use Steiner binoculars. I guess my final tip is to avoid purchasing solely on technical data points but rather try (in person) as many binoculars as you can before you buy! But in the end I’m confident that you’ll end up choosing Steiner’s. I’m very happy with my selection!

Excelente producto y todo salio muy bien.

Expensive, but I think your get what you pay for. Eyesight is not what it was so I keep these close to hand when sailing. very clear optics with great light pick up at night. Compass and light are very useful

Bought as a present for a yacht captain who is highly delighted his colleagues all use them

These are to me the best marine binoculars on the market, despite its price. I have bought these before. Only on this occasion, the battery compartment was broken and therefore the battery cannot be secured inside in a waterproof way. I did not discover that until I got to use them, two month after the return window. Nothing wrong with the product. But this particular item is deficient and sadly unusable.
