Athlon Cronus 10x42 UHD Binoculars

The Athlon Cronus Gen 2 10x42 UHD Binoculars are designed for serious glassing, with exceptional edge to edge clarity, sharp detail enhancement, ultra-clear brightness and true color representation.  Whether you are on your annual hunt for whitetails on the family farm in Alabama, or filling your tag on a once in a lifetime Montana Big Horn, don’t leave anything to chance.  We designed these binoculars with our revolutionary E2ES lens system that gives you a flat field of view.  We included Extra-Low Dispersion Glass lenses that result in a clearer and sharper image.  The Cronus Gen 2  state of the art ESP (Enhance Spectral Prism) dielectric coating reflects 99% of the light through the prism assembly.  We use a Magnesium chassis to reduce weight while keeping the chassis rugged to withstand the scrapes and bumps of constant use.

Great Value

After much online research I purchased the Midas series from Coty at Trophy Optics .
I liked them so much that I wanted to try the Cronus series , but wasn't sure the extra money was worth the step up . Called The Athlon company and spoke to a very knowledgeable staff member who took time to explain to me what the differences between the Midas and Cronus series are , and how they differ in the field . I decided to purchase a pair and have been very happy with them . A little heavier than the Midas but the edge to edge clarity is phenomenal . The locking diopter is very handy . Focusing is very easy . In short , I love them . i am seriously considering getting the 15 x 56 version for long range glassing and astronomy viewing . The reviews on them are also very good . I think that Athlon products are the best value for the money .
