Gain Express Jewelers Loupe Magnifier, Jewelry Loop Magnifier with Light, Hastings Triplet Loupe 10X for Coin, Gem, Stamp, Diamond etc (White LED & UV Light)

Works great. Great lens. I love the UV light. I'd buy it again. It also comes with a key to open the battery compartment and a nice leather case to protect the loupe.

This is an excellent product. A compact magnifier, with lights, that makes things about 10 times larger. I'm surprised at how many times I've found it useful.

The best loupe so much better than some I had. With the light it helps with seeing small pieces and print on jewelry . Easy open.

good magnification, works well

This is a good item now available at a much lower price than when I first started using these in my business as a gem dealer and jewelry designer. My major criticism of the item is the difficulty encountered in replacing the batteries. The connection is a small metal piece attached to exposed insulated wires which has to be positioned just right when the cover to the battery chamber is screwed in. In putting in and removing batteries, one has to manipulate the exposed wires which eventually wears them out, thus preventing the lighted functions from working, limiting the lifespan and usefulness as a lighted loupe.

It comes with a built in UV and LED light. The batteries are pre-installed so it is easy to use. Just slide to the off and on positions. Just make sure it's all the way off before putting it in the case. I will go on a limb and say some people think the batteries doesn't last because when they closed it, it stayed on until next use. So again, if it's not off directly in the center, it is easy to accidentally move to one of the two on positions (UV or LED). The lights are powerful so that should not be a worry. Try using a white background. The size is a 10X triplet and it will be good for most quick visual processes. I ordered a triplet loupe from the GIA and they sent it to the wrong person so while waiting for a replacement I ordered this one. I have no regrets. This is Loupe is able to accurately do everything I need for. The price and quality is right. Update: Received my more expensive Loupe and this Express loupe is way more comfortable to use. The size is a major plus. Lights still work.

I’ve never purchased one of these before and wasn’t sure the quality I’d be getting. The case is very nice! I would absolutely recommend you buy this one if you care about aesthetics and quality.

This is the first looking glass that I have loved getting. I have bought a lot of the ten dollar ones and they fell apart. I took the chance on this one and I am so glad I did. I love the color choices of the blue light and the view is amazing and clear. I love the case and the necklace too but overall I think it’s the best choice for checking the dates on coins or the makers mark on jewelry. I think if you spend the additional ten bucks you’ll be on the same page as I am. This is simply the better choice. I love it in case you can’t tell. I say just get this one because it feels solid and I think I’ll have it in a year from now and not a broken one that I’ve purchased too many times before.

Excellent loupe, very heavy and well built. The lens has perfect clarity and the integrated lights, both regular spectrum and UV are a game changer. Even in well-lit areas, when you're so close to an object often lighting is not sufficient. The integrated lights solve this with one flick of a switch. Only ever so slight drawback is the lighting switch is very small, however if you've any fingernails whatsoever it's still simple to operate.

Avevo bisogno di una lente per visualizzare piccoli dettagli. La luce UV poi mi è stata estremamente utile per evitare riflessi. Si tratta poi di un bel oggettino, di buona fattura, che non guasta. Per quanto mi riguarda, sono pienamente soddisfatto.

This scope is equiped with a decent lens that allow for easy focusing, with quite an effective led illumination in darker corners. Have not really tested out the Uv function, cos i have not use of it for now. I’d spent over hundred dollars in search for loupe that could offer decent focal length which wouldn’t spoil my eye sight. Noticed the online retail sphere has been plagued with loupes with focal length that can’t even squeeze a finger in between the loupe and object, regardless of magnifications, usually in ranges higher than 20x to lure buyers. Some versions even advertised a different but visually similar model, but only to receive an identical version to my earlier purchases, with identical aesthetically pleasant casings. But what i needed is the scope, not the casing! I definitely recommend this over many other loupes in the market.

La lupa tiene buen lente con bastante aumento y las luces son un plus, especialmente la luz UV que permite encontrar materia orgánica con mucha facilidad. Se lleva un diez.

つけてみたところ、UVライトが少し弱いため、これで蛍光反応の見分けをする場合は微妙かもしれない。普通のライトの明るさは十分だと思います。拡大も良く見えます！UVだけ少し残念かも・・・電池を替えれば明るさも変わるかもしれないことに期待します。
