I have used this filter for about a year now, many long exposures, I have found no color cast in the results, definitely recommend it. Only issue, when this arrived it was clearly used before with scratches on the case and a bit of dust on the seems, I was very disappointed when I realized it isn't brand new, but the quality is top notch. I have used this filter with Canon 24-105 widest zoom, Rokinon 16 mm f2, Sigma 17-50 mm @17 and Canon 16-35 mm @16, all work well, no vignetting or color cast.
Pros: build quality is excellent, filter case is very good keeps filter inside tight does not wobble around, it does not get stuck when stacked with other filters, I believe the metal is brass, cleaning is easy doesn't scratch easily at least I haven't had any scratches so far and I have used it outdoors in dusty conditions as well as salt spray beside the sea. Cons: If you plan to stack this with a CPL filter you will need to zoom in otherwise vignettes but this isnt the issue with this filter anyway, if you are planning to use a GND filter or you have lenses with wider/smaller thread, I would advise to buy a filter holder and a square 10 stopper rather than this screw on filter.
One more thought which might not be relevant to this filter but is my experience with long exposure is that with too long exposures you get a bit of shake from wind or water on sand on the beach, I usually find 15 seconds optimal, with this in mind, 10 stop is not long enough in bright sunny conditions (works around 4 seconds), and is too long in late afternoon/cloudy conditions, so you would need a 6 stopper to pair up with a 10 stop in bright sun or use the 6 stop alone in less light. This brings me to the point that you would either need to stack, which may cause vignetting or you might as well go with a square filter system before spending money on screw-on filters. I still find this filter useful when I dont want to carry a filter pack, it is small and easily fits in the side pocket of my camera bag.
Update March 2019:
This filter still wins all my ND filters from Lee, BreakThrough and third party cheap ones I have gathered over the years. In my review above I advised square filter system over screw-on, but more experience in my photography especially when traveling has taught me a lesson that I want to share: if you are travelling and a lighter/faster set-up I have found screw-on filters more practical. I literally used my square filter system only a couple of times in my latest travel around Great Ocean Road in Australia (where long exposure is a must if you want to get a decent shot - see example image I have uploaded). But many more times I ended using this one. I am also going to buy B+W 6 stop 77mm but oddly it is more expensive than 10 stop at the moment. Then I will leave my square filter system at home when travelling. The square filter system I use is made by Lee, other than more weight it is clumsy when you are on the move and dont have heaps of time on locations. Even though it might sound easy to remove the Lee filter using its quick release but to be able to put your lens hood/cap on you have to remove the adapter which becomes more time consuming than just a screw on filter. I have also noticed my Lee square filters reduce the fire of the sky at sunset whereas B+W produces very close results to what I can with my eyes. Given B+W tells their filters produce warmer cast I initially thought this might just be a white balance adjustment to bring back fire on the sky for my Lee images, but my hope turned to disappointment as white balance only doesnt fix Lee filter results. I havent used ND filters from other big brands but from the three I have used B+W has given me best results. Only thing I wish B+W could make thinner frames like BreakThrough.
