I've had a pair of Swarovski's (10x42) for a couple years now and like them a lot. They are waterproof for me so far, though I haven't done any extensive dunk test yet. I understand that any German (& Austrian?) binos made after two years (ago?) have to be waterproof. Markie, Swarovski is supposed to have a longtime (lifetime) guarantee on the waterproofness, send yours back (return to dealer for them to check out) and see what happens. A friend of mine got a pair fixed for nothing, but I don't remember what the deal or problem was. Good luck.
