High tech binox are great but may attract notice.

Numerous nations, including the US, Britain, Germany, Czechoslovakia (back when it existed), the Soviet Union (ditto), made reasonably decent 6x30 binoculars through, say, the late 1950s. I've seen "monoculars" for sale based on separating the barrels of such.

Cheap, and in daytime, pretty effective, and not looking like anything likely used by a well funded intelligence op. Some even work pretty well in urban area night-lighting.
