As expected premium optics comes with a price.
Zeiss will cost you 2.400,00€ and Swarovski will cost you just a bit more, 2.520,00€.
As you can see the price range is very similar.

Swarovski body is elegant like always and Zeiss`s body is a bit bulky in our opinion.

One of the bigger differences is tube diameter which is 30mm at Swarovski and 36mm at Zeiss.

What makes the Swarovski scope so good looking is that it is 2mm shorter and 85g lighter.

The field of view of Swarovski is 42.5mm where Zeiss has it 39.5mm.

Their minimal magnification is 1x on Swarovski and 1.1x on Zeiss

Zeiss has a very good elevation of 50mrad when Swarovski has only 20mrad.
