I'm curious to know if there's any difference between the AOE binos and the very similar ones sold by Andrews. I know they are both Oberwerk and perhaps AOE check collimation more than Andrews...? But can anyone tell me if there is any physical difference (ie. with the coatings)? I suspect they are the same - but not sure. Andew binos have "Fully Coated" printed on them - does this mean they're not "fully multi-coated"?

I've heard Oberwerk manufacture different grades with different coatings etc (but don't know if there's any difference between ANdrews and AOE versions).

From what I've seen and read these (Oberwerks) are good binos for the price in any case. I'd check them out first, before purchasing more expensive.
