Nikon Team Real Tree Monarch 8x42 Binoculars
The Nikon Monarch ATB 8x42 binoculars offer rugged construction for waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof performance. They're ideal to bring along for a day of four-wheeling in the mud, boatings trips, or camping out. Use them almost anywhere, in any kind of weather — their non-slip rubber coating will ensure a good grip, wet or dry.
Nikon has engineered the optics with Eco-Glass, an environmentally friendly material made without the use of arsenic or lead. Every lens surface is multicoated with anti-reflective compounds to maximize light transmission for bright, color-correct images.
Eyeglass wearers will especially enjoy the Monarch ATB's user-friendly design. A quick twist of the retractable turn-and-slide rubber eyecups is all it takes to adjust for comfortable viewing — with or without glasses. And everyone will appreciate the fact that these well-made binoculars are backed by Nikon's 25-year warranty.
What do the numbers mean?
Binoculars are generally described by two numbers. The first tells you the magnification, or how many times larger than normal size a distant object will appear. The second number describes the objective lens diameter, or the size of the front lenses. The greater this second number, the brighter images will appear (other factors being equal).
