Since 1999, Oberwerk has been continually pushing the quality of overseas optics factories to progressively higher levels. Product quality control is performed at their facility in the Russ Research Center, where each and every binocular is thoroughly tested and fine-tuned. This emphasis on high quality over profit makes Oberwerk products only slightly more expensive than the lowest-priced competitors, and an incredible bargain compared to the rest of the world's finest and most-expensive brands.

Today Oberwerk Binoculars is mainly well-known for Large Objective Binoculars, Giant Binoculars, and Binocular Telescopes. All Oberwerk Astronomy Binoculars, Oberwerk Long Range Observation Binoculars, Oberwerk Giant Binoculars and Oberwerk Binocular Telescopes feature highest-quality BAK4 prisms, which give the best performance across the entire field of view, and quality multi-coatings which maximize the amount of light that passes through a lens.

Oberwerk center-focus binoculars feature "slow" focusers that require more than one turn of the focus wheel to move from one end of the focus range to the other. Unlike competitor's "fast" focusers, OBERWERK® "slow" focusers have a more precise adjustment, and will not drift from pressure on the oculars. All Oberwerk binoculars are covered by a one year warranty for problems due to manufacturing defects.
