Sorry, I haven't. They're a little scarce so if you have no luck here you could try Cloudynights. Here's one review: Cloudynights Kowa review

They sound rather good.

I'm not sure you'd find a pair in Oz, going from Tammy h posts the stars are small points, closest thing to do would look for one f the kowa spotting scopes with the same glass (the bino is their deluxe spotting scope made to a bino)

This review of the Docter Aspectem ED has a comparison with the fluorite Highlander towards the end. There are other factors at play such as the different prism systems and the Kowa has interchangable eyepieces but still there is some more information for you.
