I buy vintage fountain pens and need a good glass. This is a well made glass. It doesn't open and close with a screw --- something you should look for. And it comes with a leather case --- something else you should have. I think it's well made. And the optical part of it is obviously superior. These are hard to get used to. But once you do, you get a vivid view of tiny writing or whatever you're looking at. I wish this was easier to use or came with instructions. It does take a bit of a learning curve. But it's a good value in my opinion.

This item was purchased as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it and uses it everyday at work. He says the quality is great and it was just what he needed.

This Loupe's magnification makes it unusable. Its field of view is very small, you have to get really close to what you are looking at, and there is a ton of distortion.

If you are looking to buy a loupe, I would recommend a 10x loupe in the $30-$60 range with a field of view of ~15mm.

Build quality was very good, and the leather case that comes with it makes storage, worry-free

Unfortunately, the product is not very well made. In the past - I had a doublet, 2oX which worked a lot better. I have trouble seeing the item I am scoping. in the purchased loupe.

Yes, the glass needs to be right up against the eye, and the item in question. Still cannot see it very well.

im not sure if this is 30X, i bought this product to look the GIA number in my diamond and worked pretty good for my objective.

It's what I ordered, but turned out to be too powerful for a novice. Would like to exchange it for correct power, but don't know how.

This loupe is quite powerful in showing all the facets of a diamond or other precious stone in good detail; though I know there are some higher priced loupes out there that would give an even sharper view. But for my needs, it does a pretty good job.
