GERMAN FIELD GEAR
#GO1 Kriegsmarine U-Boat 7 x 50 Binoculars
Original WWII German Kriegsmarine 7 x 50 U-boat binoculars. Manufactured by Carl Zeiss of Jena, a well known and very specialized lens making firm highly regarded for quality. They are equipped with rubber bumper fittings around the objective lenses to protect them while bouncing around in the U-boat, these are original period mounted and we have left them undisturbed, we did carefully lift one to check the markings, that picture is included, the markings are “7 x 50, 193194, blc”. Much of the thick textured ordnance tan paint has chipped off from genuine wartime service, and the chipped areas have since developed an appealing dark patina, and they have never been cleaned. The overall look of the set is a true “been there” character piece, that has never been messed around with and left exactly as-found. The binoculars are in perfect working order, we have tested them outdoors under different conditions and the lens are free of damage or artifacts, they are nice and clear and still very effective. These surfaced in Canada and are presumably a Canadian soldier’s war souvenir, likely taken from a Kriegsmarine base along the coast where many Canadian units operated. Very scarce and desirable, you won’t be disappointed. $2250

We don’t have any additional information past that as they were acquired many years ago. Great set. $350
