There was at a time a retailer that was selling WPC cryo-treated VAC bearings like this for the S85.
This makes your original statement completely irrelevant. The bearings you speak of haven't existed for years, and never existed for the S65.

You're saying that a company sold bearings which were OEM Bearings, which VAC had sent out for coating. Then the retailer bought the VAC bearings, and had them sent to WPC for shot peening, and then sold to consumers?

No wonder they don't exist anymore. That is a pretty batshit crazy process and makes no sense. I have a hard time believing WPC would even treat a coated bearing. I cannot find ANY information on these.
