    Product Review: The Sky Rover Banner Cloud 8 x 42 Binocular

    Good Morning, Thanks for your reply. I ordered mine via Aliexpress directly. I ordered mine on March 15 and it took about three weeks to get to Scotland. Unfortunately, they are selling rapidly.

    Product Review: Zeiss Victory Pocket 8 x 25.

    What did you see in your binoculars today?

    Observed a beautiful crescent Moon and Jupiter in the evening sky - approximately 5.1 angular degrees apart. A very fine sight in my 10 x 50!
