Minox Nautic binoculars

With 75 years of optical performance and innovation, Minox produces marine binoculars that are precision engineered in Germany to meet the extreme conditions encountered at sea.

They feature tough rubber armouring and are nitrogen-filled for 100% waterproofing to three metres. The 7x50 model binocular is available with a digital compass, and at the top end the DCM comes packed with other digital tools including barometer and altimeter. These binoculars use a singular ocular adjustment and are sharp from 12m to infinity.

Available from Kiwi Yachting, Safety At Sea, and other leading marine retailers.
