It makes me quite emotional and proud that he kept them and you have them now. He has done a lot of things that we never knew he did.

Kindly please let me know how I can get the parts needed to repair my binoculars. The tiny ball bearing is still attached to the body if that’s of any importance. I’ll appreciate any help and thank you in advance. Al

I am mostly very pleased with my Nikon Monarchs… but this eye-cup problem is sad.

I was lucky the first time the eye relief cup screws came out: they were caught in the track and I was able to put everything back. But on a trip I lost two of three screws on one side, so I glued the cup in the out position that is my norm for wearing contacts… so now this is not usable with my backup glasses.

Now home, I look at the other side, and 2 of the 3 screw slots are open at the base so will give way soon: more glue.

BUT WHY DOESN’T NIKON JUST SELL us replacement eyecups fully assembled & ready to screw on? What is that about?

I’m pleased that was helpful. I’m not sure what broke the rings apart from them being way too thin, but I did notice that the old rollers (which were actually round ball bearings not rollers like the replacements) did get a lot of corrosion from the marine environments I worked in. Would be worth putting something like a lanolin (wool grease) product on them possibly – firstly to limit corrosion, and secondly to lube them. I know CRC make a good lanolin product which should be easy on the plastic. Cheers and all the best, Rob

You saved my cake!

Now, a note regarding the small rubber rollers. After several years my eyecups (Monarch 5 8×42) have become very stiff. Curiously it happened to both at once. It might be the rubber drying out, maybe with dust making it worse, and/or high temperatures (Southern Spain is hot in Spring and Summer).

Anyway I have restored them to fully operational state just lubing the rollers with a bit of vaseline grease. Now they are smoother than they ever were.

I wonder: did yours become stiff, so much that you forced the threads? I am asking because one of mine became so stiff it unscrewed when I tried to twist them.
