The new Signature 68 60mm spotting scope by Vanguard is one of the world's finest spotting scopes. And is without doubt the finest 60mm scope we have ever seen under £450. The optical and mechanical build quality can only be compared to scopes in the £450 to £500 bracket.

The Signature 60mm is supplied as a complete kit with versatile table/hide tripod, camera adaptor and a soft field case as well as a deluxe hard storage and carry case.

The new Signature 60mm spotting scope combines precision optical design, portability and premium-quality construction in a versatile zoom spotting scope format.

Designed for the serious birder and outdoor enthusiast, this 15 to 45x zoom spotting scopes deliver sharp, crystal clear images required for long-range viewing. All Signature series spotting scopes are constructed from rigid but light aluminium alloy and have CNC machined high-precision optical mountings to provide a lifetime of top rank service.

Light touch focusing The superbly positive and light touch focusing is achieved by the ergonomically positioned mid-body helical (operates like a camera lens) focus control. Because the control knob is 50mm diameter only the lightest touch of one finger is required to adjust the focus allowing you to stay on the action as it unfolds in a split second.

The Signature fits to any tripod and the tripod mounting saddle is capable of 360 degree telescope rotation and can be locked in any comfortable position.

Multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 Prisms throughout All Signature series spotting scopes feature high-index BaK-4 prisms and high-quality, precision ground lenses that are fully multi-coated to provide optical performance that is equal or superior to any spotting scope in its class.

Lightweight and rigid aluminium alloy construction – All Signature spotting scopes are manufactured from die-cast aluminium that is then CNC machined to a high precision finish. It's a technique that delivers a build quality you can feel the moment you handle the scope. The instrument is rugged and durable, the rigid engineering of the aluminium body and chassis will maintain the optical component positioning for decades of reliable service. This telescope is built for life.

Rubber armour: The prism box and mid-focuser are fully rubber armoured and a special rugged rubber-like paint covers the metal body and quiets down those bumps and protects the Signature spotting scope from abrasions and damage from regular use.

Accessories – The Vanguard Signature 60mm spotting scope is supplied with the following high-quality accessories: deluxe fabric-finish hard case, soft field case, tripod and rotating camera adaptor.

Vanguard optics are built to ISO9001 & 14001 certification.
