You NEED an Oberwerk XL Binocular!
Does your home or office have a fabulous view? Oceanfront, lakefront, hill-top, mountain-view, penthouse- the view from all of these types of properties would be greatly enhanced with a high-quality optical instrument. Think about what you paid for your great view. The cost to get even more enjoyment from that view from an Oberwerk binocular is comparatively minuscule.
Binocular or a Telescope?
What can I expect to see?
- You can read a car license plate one mile away (under ideal conditions).
- You can clearly see boats at sea that are not at all visible to the naked eye- sometimes so clearly that you can read the name on the ship (again, under ideal conditions).
- You can see Saturn’s rings, cloud belts on Jupiter (and 4 of it’s moons), and get great views of the craters on our own moon.
- One of our customers in California reported that while he was viewing down the coastline from his home, he recognized friends of his walking into a restaurant- which was 3.5 miles away.
- A customer said they could count the lights on the Verrazano Narrows Bridge (which connects Brooklyn to Staten Island)- from their New Jersey home 45 miles away!

Why buy an Oberwerk?
High-power binoculars are definitely a niche product, and we’re the world leader in this category. Of course there are plenty of less-capable binoculars that sell for less, but there simply are none better than the Oberwerk XL Series- at any price. Consider also that since 1999, Oberwerk has been well-known among the amateur astronomy community for high-quality products at low prices, and with exceptional customer service. Binocular astronomy is considerably more demanding of optical quality than daytime terrestrial observing, and every Oberwerk binocular is tested and tuned to delight even the most demanding amateur astronomer. This means you are assured of receiving a perfectly adjusted and well-collimated instrument, even if your binocular will not be used on the night sky (however, we highly recommend that you give this a try).
