Our Gemini® 15x70 WP-CF is the only waterproof center-focus design of this size out there. This makes it the biggest handholdable binocular that you'd want to take along for use in wet conditions. It's sister, the 15x70 WP-IF, offers build quality at a level far beyond its price point. It's a great choice for an uncompromising amateur astronomer on a budget.
Everything about these instruments says "quality." Their attractive rubber armoring and hefty all-metal CNC-machined and cast aluminum construction is guaranteed to last for many years to come. The optical quality measures up to that of the precision mechanics, which makes these excellent instruments for astronomical and wildlife observation. Fully broadband multi-coated optics and BaK4 prisms farther enhance the view. Collimation can be adjusted by experienced users, if necessary. Each binocular is covered by our two-year warranty and 30-day return policy.
Every Garrett Optical binocular must pass a rigorous 14-point inspection that insures a high degree of both optical and mechanical performance, including accurate collimation. Any necessary adjustments are performed by a highly experienced technician on a U.S. Navy Mark V Collimator. An added perk is that every Gemini Waterproof binocular comes with a deluxe heavy-duty carrying case with durable PVC armoring and aluminum trim. The cases are lined with soft, "egg-crate"-style foam for maximum protection.
Our 15x70 WP-IF and 15x70 WP-CF models are beautifully-made binoculars, with optics and mechanics worthy of respect even when compared to much more expensive models. A 4.3° field and moderate weight of 4 lbs., 2.5 oz. make this binocular an excellent choice for lighter-duty mounts, when combined with an L-adapter (sold separately). It can even be handheld for quick looks. The IF version utilizes smooth, CNC-machined individual focusers provide the precision focusing essential for maxium performance on astronomical targets. The CF version, which has a minimum focus distance of 12m, uses a high-quality conventional center focus arrangement with twist-up eyecups and a right diopter. This makes it a good choice for those who plan to use their binocular for terrestrial as well as astronomical observation.
