    I don't see any difference
    except
    1. The scopes,
    2. Microscope/illumination device
    3. Paint color.
    4. Number of filters/shades (some have less than
    the usual 3+4).

    (SNO-T is a completely different sextant modeled
    on Freiberger, rather than C. Plath).
    Some time ago I had a correspondence with Jared,
    probably off-the-list, on what can "Tropic resistance"
    possibly mean. We came to the conclusion that this
    can be only related to the composition of the
    glowing paint in the illuminating microscope:-)
    But there could be more about "tropic resistance".
