This is a nicely made and substantial stay on case, at a reasonable price, compared with the cost of cases for some other 'high end' scopes. It looks and fits well, scope is ready for use within seconds, and case did not get in the way. There is access to all controls including tripod mount. I am sure it is fully waterproof, but this was not my priority, as I purchased it more to protect against knocks and scrapes, and to retain 'as new' appearance. Also included was a matching small belt case to hold two eyepieces. If you have just invested £1000 plus for your precision scope, it is definitely worth shelling out another £75 for this.
