This handbook was used for the technical training of German naval radio and signals personnel, covering core principles of electrical engineering, radio transmission and reception, antennas, wave propagation, signal generation, detection, and operation of transmitters and receivers. Made of paper, overall this is a VERY NICE complete example of approximately 128 pages, containing numerous photographs, diagrams, tables, and technical illustrations throughout. Sections include general electrical principles, electromagnetic theory, electrical machines and generators, radio fundamentals, antennas, frequency and wavelength, reception and transmission of electromagnetic waves, transmitters, receivers, power supplies, and operational safety. PERFECT for any collection or display!

These clocks were issued aboard Kriegsmarine surface vessels and U-boats during World War II, where precise timekeeping was essential for navigation, gunnery coordination, and convoy operations. Typically mounted in the radio room, wardroom, or bridge, the 8-day movement allowed extended accuracy between windings while enduring the harsh conditions of sea service. Each clock was individually calibrated and tested before deployment. It is a EXCELLENT example and retains much of the original brass finish! A couple of dents and marks (normal due to the age), however it is still VERY SOLID! Both the serial number and all markings are intact, including the full KM Adler. Some wear to the nickel finish, but nothing that detracts. 100% FUNCTIONAL, this type of clock is shown on page 182/183 of Konrad Knirim’s Military Timepieces Book. Comes complete with the original winding key. I have shown this exact clock in use on the Prinz Eugen in the last photo. An EXTREMELY RARE piece of history, it would make a FANTASTIC addition to any collection or display!

This type was specifically used by Navy Personnel and various U-Boats and Ships! Manufactured in a heavy black leather, this is a VERY GOOD unused example, with NO major damage! All buttons are original. Features two large side pockets for gloves, maps, and other accessories. The manufacture label is still present and is VERY CLEAR, as well as the ink stamps. Probably produced pre-1941, as later jackets were grey in color. Has a couple buttons missing, and a small tear (see photos), but otherwise superb! A VERY RARE item, it would make a SUPERB addition to any collection or display! TERMS OF SALE.

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 by Leitz of a large tooled alloy and aluminum construction, these 7 x 50 power binoculars are in EXCELLENT used condition! The lens bodies retain about 80% of their original, rough textured, black finish (some is missing/peeling), but is otherwise complete! The focus adjustment still functions on both eye pieces and the optics are still VERY clear (some spotting)! Sadly, some fool decided it was a good ideas to replace the part on the right side body that had the original adler and other military markings. Left side is marked 7 x 50, along with a Leitz Manufacture logo. Note that I do not see any coating on the lenses. Sadly, the optic alignment is off, so these would have to be repaired, as there is a double image when looking through. He rain shield is original, but has broken off. Strap is original, as is the case. Also comes with the TWO original lens filters (these are usually missing)! The case is the RARER taller type, that has a section dedicated to lens filters in the upper half. It is well-marked with the KM Adler, and a date of 1941. 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. ABOUT ME.
