Thanks all for your replies. I guess with binoculars one just has to
find out for oneself. I'm just back from trying WZ Cas, but the whole
thing was too faint (light pollution!). To compensate, however, I found
orange rho Cas to be a good binocular match to the 10' closeby very
blue V373 Cas.

Omicron Cygni is a great suggestion, it looks promising on the chart. I
will try the Cygnus region soon.

Best,

PS: I also found this nice collection of binocular objects that others
may find useful (includes Omicron-1 Cygni):
