Hi Mig,
I am sure these are the same as the Oberwerk/Andrews/AOE Barska,etc,etc,Cant find the proof either,but I believe,could be wrong,that they make most of the Chinese Binoculars,under a lot of different names and qualities,for eg,my Barska 15x70's look exactly the same,right down to the little dot pattern underneath the body,Unfortunately the Barskas, although,they have the good BAK-4 Prisms, aren't broadband fully multicoated,they are well coated,but not to the level my 11x56's are.
It looks like each brand is made to a certain level of quality and coating,depending on what the Retailer is prepared to pay.
Regards.John
