The Bushnell 10x42 H2O is a full-size roof prism binocular built for shooters, hunters, and boaters who need glass that holds up in foul weather. With 10x magnification over a 42mm objective, it pulls in enough light for mid- to long-range glassing while staying compact at 5.9 inches and 22.2 ounces. The IPX7-rated housing is sealed and submersible to 1 meter for 30 minutes, so a dropped pair in the surf or a downpour at the range won't fog or flood the optics. For anyone shopping our binoculars lineup, this is the workhorse 10x42 most buyers reach for.
Bushnell builds the H2O around BaK-4 prism glass and fully multi-coated, all-glass optics, which is what gives the view its brightness and edge-to-edge clarity. The chassis is aluminum wrapped in rubber armor with a soft-texture, non-slip grip that holds steady with wet or gloved hands. Inside, the barrels are argon-gas purged and O-ring sealed for fogproof performance across temperature swings. Field of view runs 361 feet at 1000 yards, with 17mm of eye relief and a 4mm exit pupil, so eyeglass wearers get a usable image without crowding. Twist-up eyecups let you dial in the right eye position, and close focus comes in at 12 feet for nearby detail work.
This pair earns its keep on the water, in the duck blind, and on the trail, anywhere a sealed optic matters more than a featherweight one. The 10x magnification favors open-country glassing and marine spotting over tight woods, so pair it with steady hands or a tripod adapter at longer ranges. Bushnell backs it with a 20-year Ironclad warranty that's fully transferable and requires no receipt. If you want a smaller package for the pack or pocket, look at the 8x25 H2O, or step into our night vision options when the light drops out.
Yes. The H2O carries an IPX7 rating, meaning the sealed housing can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes without taking on water, per Bushnell specifications. The barrels are also argon-gas purged and O-ring sealed to prevent internal fogging during temperature changes.
It pairs 10x magnification with a 42mm objective lens. That combination delivers a 4mm exit pupil and a 361-foot field of view at 1000 yards, which suits mid- to long-range glassing for hunting, marine spotting, and birdwatching.
Yes. The H2O 10x42 provides 17mm of eye relief along with twist-up eyecups, so glasses wearers can collapse the cups and still see the full field of view without crowding the eyepiece.
Bushnell backs it with the 20-year Ironclad warranty. Coverage is fully transferable and requires no receipt, per Bushnell. This applies to defects and normal use, giving long-term peace of mind on a sealed optic.
Close focus is 12 feet (3.6 meters). That makes it usable for nearer subjects like backyard birds or detail work, though the 10x power is best matched to longer-distance glassing across open country or water.
