Swift Country 10x40, anyone heard of it ? (1 Viewer)

Hi all,
I'm in search for some mid size porro bins, and I came across this model (which is not exactly mid size, BTW ) on a local second hand market site : Swift 10x,40 Country wide angle multi coated. As I couldn't find any information about it on the net, I thought about asking the Swiftologists here .

Seems to be aimed at the european market as the comma (,40) suggests ? As the guy asks nearly 100 $ for it, I don't intend to bid for it, as I can get an audubon for such an amount with some patience. But I was just curious, and thought that maybe some bin gurus here might be interested. Have a nice prismatic day.
 
Yes, I am aware of a 10x40 Country Mk1. My database shows a single instance with no model number or date code, and a red ribbon. So it was probably a Swift-Pyser product that was distributed in Europe as you said.

Thanks,
Ed
