Swarovski CL CURIO 7×21

Introduction

Swarovski Optik, a world-leading manufacturer of long‐range sports optics, sets the ball rolling with its latest binoculars release. The designer behind the new CL CURIO binoculars, Marc Newson, said: “My design language is about simplicity, functionality, and – I’d like to think – has a certain uniqueness.” And so, the CL CURIO 7×21 was born.

The Perfect Choice for Nature Lovers

These Swarovski binoculars are something special, as they set new standards with the lightest and smallest binoculars in their product range. CURIO features a 7x magnification accompanied by a 21 mm objective lens, which is where optical quality also meets viewing comfort and makes observation of nature a sheer pleasure. Along with the traditional colour combination, there is also an interesting combination of silver and orange available for those who want to step out of their comfort zone.

Our team was quick to test out the product and we were more than impressed by its performance. The field of view of 135 m/1000 m does not disappoint, the image is extremely sharp around the edges and overall, optically, CURIO exceeded our expectations. The CL model is small, easy to handle, foldable, and ready to be used in almost any circumstance (except in low light). Do not let its tininess fool you – these binoculars are powerful.

What is New?

Introducing a new pocket binocular was a bit unpredictable for Swarovski, considering the fact that a series of pocket binoculars by Swarovski already exists, but who could miss an opportunity of having Marc Newson design their product? CL CURIO is currently also the most compact pair of binoculars from Swarovski. It truly lives up to the name ‘pocket’ as when you fold it, it is so small that you can literally put it in any pocket. Price-wise, it is currently also the cheapest binocular in their offer, even though the price does not differ much from the CL Pocket model.
