Romanian company IOR Valdada optics has been making quality optics since the mid 1930s. At WW2 the company was drafted by German forces. During the war they produced a wide range of military optics. When Romania was absorbed into the Warsaw Pact, IOR Valdada became a major supplier to the military forces of the East. Along with the Carl Zeiss firm, IOR supplied military grade optics throughout the cold war era.

The lenses have a T3 Magnesium Fluoride, anti-reflex multi-coat which IOR claims to provide 98% light transmission. The bright image appears to be slightly yellow-amber. This provides good contrast for normal lighting and cuts down on eyestrain when viewing in bright conditions.
