6mm Antares W70 series 3
On Jupiter the Takahashi is still the best. W70 and Delos very close. When moved over to Saturn light scatter was more visible in W70 than the others. The 3 dim moons seen were harder to see because of this.
So conclusion W70 a little better than TMB copy, they are about same price at $60. Delos a little bit better than these 2, and Tak abbe still best of all.
Arizona- where the sky's are not cloudy all night.
Triple lensed fracs are so yummy when looking at planets.

I have not used my W70s in a very long time, I should correct that soon.
They work quite well in myf/ 8 and slower refractors.
What telescope were you using yours in?

Re: 6mm Antares W70 series 3
All these worked well in my 10" f/ 4.6, pinpoint stars all across field. I've been a fan of the W70s since early 2000's. Only the 15mms and up had edge focus problems.
