Default What Binoculars do you use most?

Hey Guys and gals. Here is a question?
What binoculars are your "go to" binoculars

What binocs would you get if money were no object?

My go to binocs are a pair of Optolyth Alpin 10x50. ($120 US on ebay) Made in Germany. Lightweight and very good resolution. They are not sold in USA as far as I can tell. They cost 299 british pounds new. But are only splashproof, not waterproof. I also use a pair of CArl Zeiss Jena EDF 7x40 "check point Charlie" binocs from the East german army ($250 US on ebay). Really tough but heavey. Something like 18mm of eye relief . Good glass but they have that slightly yellowish tint common of eastern block glass

My dream glass is probably;
Swarovski EL 8.5x42 (1699.99)
OR
Brunton Epoch 8x43 in MOssy Oak (1499.99)
