Was at my Cousin and her husbands ranch this weekend (pictures tomorrow). There was a pair of Pentax DCF 10X42 bino's. One eyepiece doesn't work. I said I think I can get them fixed. She said keep them see if you can get them fixed.
WHERE can I get this done??? they are really nice binos

Buzz, sadly only the manufacture will do repairs. There used to be a guy in Tulsa who worked on optics, but IDK what happened to him. He's no longer active and he doesn't go to Wannamaker (spell check) Gun Show any more.

Check out this place. He's been around for a few decades and seems to have a good reputation. I'm getting ready to send in an old pair of binoculars that need collimation. https://suddarthoptical.com/
I have two unwritten rules: 1. 2.

No luck, they don't repair Pentax anymore, plastic gears and no replacements available. I got them focused for me, so, I'll just keep them on my side table to spy on my neighbors.
