Ok, nobody has had any experience with the Minox BD, has anyone had any experience with their BV series of binoculars?

Minox is an interesting company.  Reviews of their products are always really good, consistently garnering direct comparisons to the "big 3."  They were, at one time, a subsidiary of Leica and they have the honor of having pioneered some camera technologies.  You would think they would be pretty popular.  However, I have it on good authority that, despite their seemingly prestigious (even enviable) heritage, accomplishments, and reviews, they just don't sell well at all.
 
Go figure. 
What if the hokey pokey really is what it's all about?

I have not used BV, but I do recall reviewing 7x42 BD BR binos.

It is somewhere on this forum.

Did another advanced search and found your review, Koshkin, 5/1/07 posted at 0458 hours.  Keeping some early or late hours.  Good review and it helped me out a lot.  Thanks.
