If you had half a clue as to what you're talking about with regards to Meopta, you wouldn't have bothered responding in the first place. As most know, Meopta was the OEM for several optics companies including Cabelas, Zeiss, Leica, Nightforce, Trijicon, and maybe a couple of others. When the original OEM contracts expired with these companies, that's when Meopta started coming out with new products for the American market and started becoming more "front and center" in terms of brand recognition. The more people used them, the higher their reputation got, and the more recognizable their high quality products and customer service became. It was an obvious step up from OEM status. Meopta is one of the few companies in the world that is capable of manufacturing and grinding/polishing their own glass in house. They are a true alpha company.
Here's another lesson for you. When Bass Pro took over Cabelas, Meopta had been making the Cabelas Euro/Instinct line of optics for a few years already. Bass Pro gave the "screw you" to owners of these products, even though Cabelas had their ironclad lifetime guarantee on them. Bass Pro negated that warranty out of thin air. Meopta had no obligation to honor the warranty because Cabelas was, but decided to honor the warranty anyway, out of good will, with no legal obligation to do so. That's taking care of customers IMO.
