The Vortex Optics Diamondback series sets the standard for durability and performance, and the 8x42 is no exception. As an 8x42, it is an ideal multi-purpose binocular, a good tool for hunters, bird watchers, hikers and others. Argon filled and externally sealed, it is guaranteed to resist water damage. It has also been tested to withstand extreme temperature changes without internal fogging. Its Vortex quality optics produce sharp and crisp views of objects. The binocular is sufficiently rugged to survive well in harsh environments. That is why it offers the user a finely textured armor protective coating to assure a sure grip even in extreme cold weather. The Diamondback is indeed manufactured to live up to its name.
