WW2 German Kriegsmarine 7×50 Leitz U Boat U-Boot Binoculars FOR PARTS NICE
Used on U-boats and other surface vessels. Hese were captured at the end of the war. The German Army and Navy used a wide variety of optical equipment, including a 6×30 (6 power magnification with 30mm objective lens), 7×50, 8×30, 10×50 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 of aluminum, brass, and steel by Leitz, these 7 x 50 power binoculars are in GOOD used condition! Most of the finish has worn away from the lens bodies, but eye pieces are still 100% intact! The focus adjustment is stiff on both eye pieces, and the optics are blurry (right side is dark). The left side is body marked 7 x 50, the 3-digit code of “beh” (indicating being manufactured by Leitz). Some of the rubber armour remains, but it appears most have been removed. It would make a PERFECT addition to any collection, display, or restoration project! 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. 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. Use is solely based on my authorization only. The free listing tool.
