Diamond and Comet seems to me that are customized for 440-450 MHz instead of 430-440 MHz so that if I buy I shall have high SWR in my opinion.
Which company can I trust for right OM band living in Europe?

If you order from a EU supplier you should receive the correct version. But usually it says 440MHz in the text or a suffix letter other than A or N.
An A stands for PL259 connector and N are a N connector. For some reason Italy usually have the lowest prices even when shipping to another country have been added.

The market decides what products that can be sold. If an equally good, or better, product exists then the inferior one can not be sold as no one wants it. Only if massive advertising are in work and free samples are given to "influencers" then a bad product will always find buyers. Most people don't bother to check honest non-biased reviews.
