first number represents zoom. so in 12x you get additional 2x zoom as compared to 1st one. second number is the objective lens diameter.

The main difference between 10x42 and 12x42 binoculars is the magnification power. A 10x42 binocular will magnify an object 10 times, while a 12x42 binocular will magnify it 12 times. This means that the 12x42 binoculars will provide a slightly closer view of the object. However, higher magnification can also result in a narrower field of view and may make for a shakier image, as any hand movements are magnified as well.
