I am looking to replace my scope. I have been looking at a Bresser Optics.
It even comes with a fitted cover. Will it be waterproof and fog proof in reality.
I am presently using a Celestron Ultima (18-55 x 65)which I got from David Hinds Ltd, they are the UK distributor for these they offer a 2 year guarantee and they are waterproof they also price match if you can find it cheaper on another web site they will match it I got mine for £93 inc next day courier delivery

CELESTRON ULTIMA 65 - 45 Spotting scopes
