Great FOV for a 10, enough eye relief to use with my big thick glasses, no CA center or edges in normal daytime birding, bright and sharp wall to wall, and good natural color rendition. I've decided to keep (and recommend) them because I like the optics so much, but I deducted a star for two reasons. First, the objective lens caps are a joke. They fall open at the slightest provokation. Second, the focus wheel is surprisingly sticky. I'm hoping that with more use it will smooth out.

This is probably the best glass for the money period. On the list of the best optics of all time this binoculars are on 6th place. 5 binoculars above and 5 below Nikon Monarch HG are 2-2.5 times more expensive for about 2-3% better optics. Therefore for the money this binoculars are bargain. Fit and finish is stunning, looks also, but the best part is magnificent optics for sure. Worth every penny!!! Do not hesitate to purchase Monarch HG 10x42.

Excellent binocular!

A big improvement from already own Monarch 7!
The new MONARCH HG was built from the ground up to achieve class-ruling optical performance, unrivaled ruggedness and exceptional handling. From eyecups to objective lenses, the new patriarch of the flagship MONARCH family pushes binocular performance to higher levels through design, technology and 20 years of MONARCH ATB-building experience.
Every precious moment you spend in the field deserves the advantage of extraordinary performance. To this end, Nikon engineered the optical system of MONARCH HG around its ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass and high-quality multilayer coating that is applied to all lenses and prisms for brighter, higher resolution viewing.
Works in conjunction with MONARCH HG’s extraordinarily wide field of view* —8.3° and 6.9° respectively in the 8x42 and 10x42 models—to provide a sharp, clear view to the lens periphery.
Because a binocular of this significance must always perform and do so without weighing you down, MONARCH HG’s body is made from magnesium alloy. Providing optimum strength, impact resiliency and weight reduction, the slim body profile is further enhanced with rubberized panels to provide a sure grip in any conditions.
To assure long-term optical acuity, MONARCH HG objective and eyepiece lenses are protected by scratch-resistant coatings, while interior lenses are shielded from fogging with an extreme waterproof rating that assures fogproof integrity even at altitudes to 16,000 foot equivalent.
