I find it quite hard to disagree with anything Ratal has said about the Opticron Aurora. I wound up keeping the 10x42 Aurora. I seem to be going in a reverse aging direction, as the older I get the more I tend to like 10x as compared to my long standing 8x preference. The strong points as I see them are the absolute top quality image and the way both eyes focus for optimum user satisfaction. The only niggle I might find is the eye cups on mine I wish stayed in place a bit better in the fully extended position. The eye cups design is however exceedingly comfortable.
For those expressing a wish for a 32 mm Aurora, Pete has already said, more than once, that it won't happen. That leaves two choices labelled Opticron in a 32 mm binocular. The Verano (but stay far away from the 42 mm Verano) and the Traveller ED. The Verano for a bit larger, yet still compact binocular, and the more typically sized Traveller.
FWIW, the 42 mm Aurora feels smaller in hand than its actual size might indicate. Even small hands should not have many issues.
