    Are you certain these are fully multi-coated? The box says "fully coated" i.e single layer on every element. All other literature I have found describe these as fully coated. e.g

    "I remembered these scopes from the mid 90's and dug out an article by Nick Jenkinson in an old copy of AGW which was lurking in the loft.
    This confirmed that the Nikko had fully coated lenses and excellent optics."


    Except ad for Webley platinum. They're not the brightest of scopes either and the image has a slight blue tint in direct comparison with my other scopes which are all fully MC.
    It may be that spec may have changed over the years or be slightly different per badge.
    Very clear though with good contrast, mono tube and the build quality is solid. I have the Nikko 3-9x40 wa/pa. Beats current Chinese Simmons, Hawke etc easily
