Focus Optimum ED binoculars (1 Viewer)

Hello
Lately I have been looking for some new 8x30/32 binoculars to upgrade from my Diamondback 8x32 HDs.
Suddenly I stumbled across these new binos from Focus Sport Optics, the Focus Optimum ED.

I have not seen it in real life, but looks like it has a metal focus and diopter wheel, good FOV(8,2), ed glass and sturdy design.
This is probably a chinese clone, but who is its siblings?
The price is up there with the Hawke Frontier EDX, GPO Passion, Opticron Traveller ED etc...

Update: I got confirmation from Focus that it has metal focus and diopter. And made in China.
The only other 8x32 bins i have found with 8,2 deg FOV is the Opticron Traveller and the Kite Falco, but the Falco does not have a ED glass.
Could this be a Traveller clone?
