My only experience is with a 8X30 SLC that I bought new in 1990. I sent them in around 2008 for a cleaning and to have the end caps replaced. I received a pair that I would have never recognized. New armor, new lenses, completely updated and with a viewI wouldn’t have recognized. I was charged $22 for new caps. I have no experience with Swarovski scopes but I will never buy any other binos than
