worth every penny
« on: September 03, 2008, 04:59:36 PM »
last week i was in a bind trying to figure out if i wanted a swaro spotting scope or binos, well after battling it out in my head for awhile and talking the wife into letting me buy them with the misc. money i had saved. i bought the SLC10x42's and am more than impressed with them. yeah they cost a arm and leg but i figure they have a lifetime warranty and are top of the line, plus im sure that they will get handed down through the generations to come. this is the first time i have ever spoiled myself with something to do with opics and now wonder why i didnt do it a long time ago, but now as my brother in law says......no more excuses  :chuckle:

You're going to love those SLC's!  And in my opinion, you made a good choice going with top notch bino's before a top notch spotter.

Congratulations! Seems as though you generally get what you pay for when it comes to optics.  If it were me, I'd add 'em to my personal articles policy in case you ever loose 'em. Enjoy!  :tup:

 :brew: Welcome to the Swaro family, the spotter will be much easier to justify once you use the binos for a while ;)
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Great choice with the SLC's!  I started with the spotter, then bought the 10x50's, then the rangefinder, and finally, the 15x56's.  Watch out - they are addicting.....and so "worth every penny"!

Yeah, no one looks through good glass and wonders what all the fuss was about.... good gear sells AND pays for itself.  ;)
