My pair of Nikon monarch binoculars were bought for me about four months ago by my wife, and straightaway I fell in love with them. I wanted a good pair to use for birdwatching. I've spent quite a bit of time researching different models to make sure my wife bought me the ones I really wanted. These binoculars have a really nice feel, they weighed only 699 g, and are extremely well-balanced. I've dropped them several times without damaging them.

Three weeks after I got my binoculars I took them with me to Kenya for a safari. I recall standing on a hill looking towards the sun down into a valley. When I looked through my Nikon monarch's eye could see each house in the village clearly and even some of the people's faces, without the binoculars though I could see nearly nothing. This proved to me that the quality of the optics in the Nikon monarch binoculars is excellent.

My father-in-law, also an avid birdwatcher, thinks these are the best binoculars you can use. He has invited me along on almost all of his trips ever since I got them. The quality of these binoculars is fantastic for the small price you pay. If you want to the top class pair of Nikon binoculars you could easily expect to pay over $2000, but you would be heartbroken if you lost or damaged them. I would not lose any sleep if I lost my new Nikon monarchs as they are affordably replaceable.

Another other thing is that the way technology is moving the $2,000 optics will be $500 within about 5 years.

There was lunar eclipse last week, and I had a chance to try out my Nikon monarch's at night. There was a group of us who went out off the city to get a good view of the eclipse, between us all there were three different pairs of good-quality binoculars. My monarchs were by far the best! This was unfortunate for me as it meant I had to share them with the rest of the group for the entire night.

One of the good points about buying a pair of Nikon's are the options that come standard on their binoculars. These include being waterproof and having fog prevention on their lenses, these are great qualities to have in any binoculars. There is also an extended eye relief option for people who will be wearing glasses, or using the binoculars for long periods of time.

The Nikon monarch binoculars are past all my tests with flying colours over and over, I don't think I'll ever be switching to a different model - just upgrading these! Highly recommend!
