Hi Bob,
I have to admit, it's the first time I've ever heard anyone putting a Nagler in front of an XW, but each to his own hey?!

Really?
What about our own Mike Salway review of 13mm Nagler, 14mm Pentax XW here:

What about his conclusion:

Who's the winner then? When comparing all 4 eyepieces for performance and value for money, the 13mm Nagler Type 6 comes out on top. It's a beautiful eyepiece, a consistently high performer in every aspect and if you can afford to own one, they're worth it. They're a great medium power eyepiece for viewing DSO's in a fast dob/newt, and would make a great high power eyepiece in an SCT. The 14mm Pentax XW would also be an excellent choice in longer focal length scopes if a reasonable percentage of your time is spent on high power work such as lunar, planetary and doubles - especially if you wear glasses to observe.

Or, maybe you should try google then

I do read what other people write in reviews about eyepieces. But at the end of the day I make decision based on my own opinion. As I said I have both 17mm Nagler and 10 mm Pentax XW so I can compare them on the spot.
People say Pentax XW doesn't dew, well guess what my does
and its brand new!
Some people say Pentax XW is better than Nagler, well for me that is not the case. Actually 10mm Pentax XW gives a bit of fringe on Moon and Jupiter and Nagler is clear.
So, I might not see as many colours as a woman do but I didnt buy eyepieces for that reason
When it comes to choose nice T shirt that goes with my shoes I leave it to my wife
