Where'd you go, stay put!
Yes, and right off the bat, the packaging is meant to impress. Instead of the green box, the box is done up in a brown leatherette. Some different inserts also. Not for everyone but personally, I really like the bag. No doubts about the quality there. There are no extra pockets but that was never an issue for me. And I much prefer the darker brown over the Traveler sand brown.
The CL is the same CL, so really, the only reason to spring for this model would be the uniqueness of the bag and color. Although they would make a super cool gift.
No, the 8x30s aren't special order, I just haven't decided how much to put into a limited edition model. We had one of the last generation pocket 8x20s with the real brown leather armor and case (the Pocket Tyrol) and as nice as they were, it didn't move for a long time.
