Is there a way to tell if you are buying the most recent variation of a bino model that has been around for a while. For example, the Nikon Monarch which has been around for a while has been recently improved. How can I make sure that what I buy includes the latest improvements?
Thanks.
If you mean "being improved" in regard to the Monarch as including phase coating, etc... then I would offer that the original Monarchs were 8x40s and 10x40s while the newer models are 8x42s and 10x42s. Hope this helps.
That was one feature I had in mind. The other was the use of Eco-Glass in lenes and prism elements. Thanks Frank.
