Description

You are bidding on an NICE set of WW2 German Kriegsmarine 7x50 Commander Binoculars!
The German Army and Navy used a wide variety of optical equipment, including a 6x30 (6 power magnification with 30mm objective lens), 7x50, 8x30, 10x50 and others, being the standard issued optics used by all branches of service.
Though this type was the standard, specialized personnel required stinger optics, and were issues to personnel on a limited basis.
This specific binocular was used by U-Boat crews, ships, and coastal artillery.
Made by beh (Leitz) of a large tooled alloy and aluminum construction, these 7 x 50 power binoculars are in VERY NICE used condition!  The lens bodies retain all of their original, rough textured covering, however some of it is starting to peel (just needs to be re-glued).  The aluminum end piece fittings are 100% intact.  The focus adjustment still functions perfectly on both eye pieces and the optics are still AMAZINGLY clear with NO spotting!  There are some slight chips to the prisms, but it does not detract, and it is not that noticeable when looking through.  Left side is marked, "7x50 beh", along with the serial number.  Some slight paint chips on the edges.  Neck strap was added post-war.  A VERY GOOD example, with NO cracks, breaks, or damage!  A PERFECT addition to any collection or display!

--------------- TERMS OF SALE --------------
Most of my items are vintage, and as such are AS-IS, so you must therefore expect a degree of wear due to age and/or usage.

All sales are final, so please make sure your questions are answered to your satisfaction before you purchase.
-------------------- ABOUT ME -----------------
Although my passion is the Me109, I do offer many other German Aircraft (Fw190, Me262, etc.), as well as USAF and Japanese items. Occasionally I do offer many non-vintage items such as prints and art relating to the time period. As a private collector myself, I am constantly on the lookout for historical memorabilia, authentic photographs, artwork or anything unique relating to military aircraft.
