Swarovski CL Pocket 8x25 Binocular Wild Nature Package
$1,405.00
CL Pocket 8x25
Wild Nature
Big on quality, small in size. The 8× companion version of the CL Pocket, with a wider field and a brighter, steadier image — ready for the jacket pocket and the long day out.
Always ready for
the wonders of nature
Four reasons the CL Pocket is the compact binocular that goes everywhere — and performs like it shouldn't.
Pocket-Sized Design
Folds flat to fit in almost any pocket. Just 350g, ready for a jacket, a day pack, or a handbag.
Precision 8× Optics
8× magnification with a 3.1mm exit pupil and 88% light transmission — a brighter, steadier handheld image that holds detail into last light.
2.5m Close Focus
Razor-sharp detail on butterflies, dragonflies and flowers just 2.5 metres away. A macro window on the natural world.
Made in Austria
Hand-assembled in Absam, Tirol. Waterproof to 4m depth, nitrogen-filled, built to outlast every trip.
Crystal-clear views,
from a pocket-sized instrument
Every lens surface is fully multi-coated with Swarovski's proprietary coatings. The result is an image with the bright, high-contrast character that defines Swarovski Optik — and 88% light transmission so that detail holds up well into last light.
A generous 6.8° true field of view shows you 119m of scene at 1000m — roughly 20% wider than the 10×. That width makes it easier to locate moving birds, scan flocks, and track subjects through foliage at 8× magnification.
(119m at 1000m)
Folded flat,
always with you
The CL Pocket's dual-hinge bridge design folds the barrels in underneath, collapsing to a footprint that disappears into a coat pocket or day pack. The rubber-armoured aluminium chassis is balanced in the hand and the 8× magnification is exceptionally steady handheld — no tripod, no shake, just a clean, settled view.
The twin hinges also provide an unusually wide 48–74mm interpupillary range, so the same binocular fits children, adults, and every eye-spacing in between. Small enough that you'll actually bring it with you.
Pocketable in a jacket or day pack
A macro lens
for the natural world
Close focus down to 2.5 metres turns the CL Pocket into something more than a distance tool. Dragonflies resting on a reed. Butterflies working a garden. Spiders on a web. Fungi at the base of a tree.
It's the detail you'd normally need a macro camera to see — except here it's live, moving, and framed in your hands. For nature-curious travellers and birders who love the small stuff, close focus is transformative.
17mm of eye relief,
full view for every user
17mm eye relief with adjustable twist-up eyecups gives eyeglass and sunglasses wearers the full field of view — not a cropped ring like lesser compacts.
±5 dpt diopter adjustment lets you match the optic exactly to your eyes. Nitrogen-filled, pressure-tested, and waterproof to 4 metres — operate confidently from the snowline of the Alps to a summer garden in Queensland.
Nitrogen filled · sealed for life
Big on quality, small in size — a folding binocular that fits in the palm of your hand and delivers the image quality we expect from the Swarovski name.Swarovski Optik · Absam, Austria

CL Pocket 8x25 vs 10x25
Choosing between the two magnifications? Here's how the 8x25 and 10x25 compare — same chassis, different optical experience.
The 8× is the wider-field, brighter and steadier everyday choice — best for quick pickup, flocks, forest birds and low light. The 10× is the detail-forward option for distant and stationary subjects.
Every pocket
deserves a Swarovski
Hand-assembled in Austria, built for a lifetime of observation, and small enough to carry every day. This is the binocular that goes everywhere you do.
