Seller:starotron(1,549)98.7%, Location:Durham, North Carolina, Ships to: US, Item:223185423556Relisted because of nonpayment. Vintage German field binoculars - I have had these in my possession for a long time, yet have little knowledge to what actual time period they belong. I have taken photos of all stamps on these, which are Hensoldt Wetzlar and Dienstglas 6 x 30 with serial number '8639'. The lenses are all intact and the binoculars function as they should. However, the body is peeling/flaking in areas and has some patina as shown. Case is in solid shape, and has no markings that I can tell. Both straps are functional, but have wear expected from the age. ANY questions at all, feel free to message me. Thanks for looking! On Oct-01-18 at 18:04:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Another member asked these questions, and here's my responses:Are the binos: 1) In collimation: both optical prisms properly aligned so you see the object focused on as one without getting a headache. The best way to check alignment is to focus the binos on a distant, perfectly flat object such as a rooftop. Still looking through the binos, slowly move them away from your face until the view splits into separate images. If the line remains straight, the glass is properly aligned. If the line is higher on one side and or breaks or bends, the binos are out of collimation. 2) When you look through the binos the wrong way into a light (big end to small end) do you see any haze, fungus, dirt, chips, cracks, lens separation etc.3) Do they have a reticle: small interior black lines (used for range estimation) seen when looking through them? 4) Do the adjustment knobs work properly and turn freely and consistently without excessive difficulty or ease? Thanks! On Oct-03-18 at 07:23:30 PDT, seller added the following information: Have been trying to get the answers to these questions posted, but having issues. 1. Yes2. No3. No4.

This is a 'RIGHT OCCULAR' designed to be held in the right hand and sited using the right eye. T were left occulars made as well. This piece can be dated by its Serial number and the fact that it's black lacquered.

Dienstglas Serial Numbers

Dienstglas is German for 'Service Glass' . Monoculars were made for military service only for troops, etc. win weight was a factor. They were also less costly to manufacture. In about 1943 Germany ran out of black pigments and those made later were gray-colored, or yellow or green. The word Dienstglas didn't appear until 1940. Branch ID's (Navy, Army, Air) didn't appear until 1944-45; likewise the swastika wasn't shown until later.'rln' is the German code for the manufacturer. In this case it stands for CARL ZEISS JENA, GERMANY. The Zeiss plant was totally destroyed during allied bombing in 1945, however following the war the plant reopened and resumed making optical equipment. The starting Serial # for RIGHT OCCULAR MONOCULARs was 3,726,141 in 1946-47. I wasn't able to find out what the 'triangle' stands for. It is found on most Monoculars of the period. It may stand for the three branches of military (named above) as these were made ONLY FOR MILITARY USE. CONDITION:
