 What is a waterproof spotting scope?
Answer Waterproof scopes are designed to totally exclude water from the optical tube and also may be filled with dry, inert gas (nitrogen) as an additional barrier to internal moisture. There may be seals and optical windows too.

The additional feature of rubber armoring is the final level of ruggedness and helps protect your scope from abrasion, damage or loss of collimation if you accidentally drop it.
