Unknown brand 8 x 42 roof prism binocular. (1 Viewer)

Does anybody know, or think to know the brand of this older 8 x 42 roof binocular? The 8 x 42 roof is pretty good and is absolutely not a budget roof binocular.

My thoughts are that it is a old Bushnell. The 8 x 42 looks Chinese but there are no marks, or any text on the binocular. Except 8 x 42, 7°.

Please help. :stuck:

I will have a search later, offhand no idea, but I agree it looks Chinese, and maybe not so old?.

Looks a lot like a kunming Ruder Co product, Kunming city, Yunan Province , they produce and sell a lot of unbranded optics for bulk purchase.
