Oberwerk Binoculars
“High performance optics for earth and sky” is the motto of Oberwerk, makers of high quality telescopes and binoculars. As German as they sound, they are a wholly American company, based in Ohio . They design optics that are durable and versatile, so don't be afraid to overwork your Oberwerks'.
The remarkable thing about Oberwerk is the sheer variety and range of models, all the way from giant mounted binoculars to telescopes to 42 mm compacts. Most Oberwerk's are priced in the mid-range. Want to gamble on something out of the mainstream that just might be better value than anything in the mainstream? Take a ‘closer look' at Oberwerk.
Some binoculars from Oberwerk
The Oberwerk 8x42 WP is a modestly priced pair of roof prism binoculars with waterproofing and long eye relief. They feature other Oberwerk stylings such as a heavily rubber-armored body. Weighing in at a trim 1.5 lbs, these have a MSLP of only $139, and they can be shipped anywhere within the US .
Oberwerk's 10x60 mm Mariner Series are binoculars that can be used for anything from nautical applications to birding on land. These also come in 9x, 12x, 15x and 20x. The 60 mm aperture gives you some high end light gathering that makes these ideal for anything from hunting to backyard astronomy. The 10x60's are listed at just under $200.
At the top of the Oberwerk line is a pair of 100mm astronomy binoculars. These sit on a fork mount that provides easy viewing from horizon to zenith. If you want some superior binoculars (much easier on the eyes than a telescope) for your backyard observatory, the suggested price is over $2,000 - a price tag you're likely to see if you look for these at a local shop. If you search online, you're likely to find them for under $2,000.
