These binoculars are in good working condition, with correct collimation and clear, well-aligned images for their age.
There is general wear to the binocular body consistent with normal use and age. The outer objective lens protection rings show light dents, which are minor and barely noticeable.
The eyepieces and objective lenses have been carefully cleaned internally, along with the accessible optical elements beneath them. The image clarity is already good, but it could be further enhanced if the internal prism surfaces were also cleaned — these are located beneath the fixed metal covers.
Please see photos for further details.
