I don't know about the UK, but here in California Beuchat is selling the
Cochran Nemesis II Nitrox under the name 'Aladin Maestro Pro'.  It has
Cochran's name stamped into the plastic, but Beuchat appears on the face.

I believe there was some kind of trademark battle between Beuchat and
Uwatec over the rights to the name 'Aladin' earlier this year.
