Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sancho" data-source="post: 1810500" data-attributes="member: 27039">Okay, now I´m totally confused. I have a pair of Victory Compact 8x20, traded for other binos with a kindly BF member. They were originally bought in the UK in May, 2008. Cordura case. The number on the box says 522035, and the serial number on the binos is 27507xx. They are described as 8x20 BT*, and the words "Victory Compact" appear in raised embossing on the rubber armouring. Do I have the latest dielectric coatings? (I imagine they´re not Lotutec, but that doesn´t bother me). If anyone could give me a yay or nay on this, I´d be very grateful.Edit - actually, perhaps I´m not that confused anymore. It would appear from the foregoing that mine are Dielectric coated. There is nothing on the binos, or the box, to suggest that they have Lotutec, though.</blockquote>
