Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Unspecified optical coating composition, Coating degradation and particulate release, Metal frame leaching (aluminum or brass) and Glass integrity and cutting risk on the and not on the B+W.
  • The B+W is Optical glass lens with multi-coated optical surfaces where the is Glass lens, metal frame, unspecified optical coatings, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 35 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the B+W is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the grade, at 35% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
