When I worked in a control tower we always had to confirm "gears down" after using the binoculars.
Yeah, having spent years listening to military air chatter, you always hear the pilot (Navy at least) verify "three down and locked" on the downwind leg. And, as you say, the tower also verifies the gear. Weird.......

When I used to fly Army UH-1's into a Navy base and they ask for gear verification I always replied: "gear - bolted and welded".
