I am about to ask the Birding Shop for the third
replacement pair of lens caps for my Swarovski bins, since I first purchased the
bins in 2002. In all cases it is the rubber ‘hinge’ that perishes
after about 12-18 months. I would imagine that I am lot alone with this problem
on otherwise outstanding bins (certainly Charles at the birding shop has
alluded to the fact that he is providing these covers to other birders). I
would like to hear from other owners so that I can make a case to Swarovski recommending
a change to their manufacturing process.
Cheers
Alastair
