They still do. My Navy MK43's made in 1942 still are super clear,
bright and have never had a drop of moisture inside them, if the optics
are coated, they still have 100% of the coating intact. JFK treasured
the pair he had on his PT boat.

Oh... you mean like some people might choose magnification and field of view
over lens diameter and depth of field? Personally.... I believe quality and
suitability are my primary guiding factors.

Then again... what do I know?

Actually, and Bart will probably have to change his POV on this as I'm
100% correct, the most important factor for choosing ANY binocular set
is inter-ocular distances. This will determine if you can use them AT
ALL. No other aspect of a given optical design matters if you cannot
use both eyes. Steiner has several units that are not compatible with
all users.

That's because you have an ape-like skull and your eyes are set close
together with a large protruding brow.

What if the distance is adjustable... like on most binoculars. I think they
invented that about the same time they came up with adjustable dioptres.

Especially important when your eyes are spaced as widely apart as those
found on a mule, or an ass.
