Very rare Zeiss Karoly Györ 6x binoculars M.7 Z. for ‘Panzerstände�...�
These very rare binoculars are quoted on the following trustworthy website as only ‘….. the fourth known piece of Zeiss 6x21 binoculars in a special construction …..’http://www.fernglasmuseum.at/museum/zeiss_karoly_gyoer_m7z_fuer_panzerstaende_2/zeiss_karoly_gyoer_m7z_fuer_panzerstaende_2.htmlThe binoculars listed here are the very same pair as shown and discussed on this website. The subject of the purpose for these ‘differently’ shaped binoculars has been heavily discussed on other website forums so will not be referred to here. The above website and the photographs attached here, had difficulty in depicting the rather badly scratched inscriptions. However, with careful very close inspection there are sufficient characters remaining to match them with photos of another binocular on the same website. See the 5th photo down on the website below.http://www.fernglasmuseum.at/museum/zeiss_karoly_gyoer_m7z_fuer_panzerstaende/zeiss_karoly_gyoer_m7z_fuer_panzerstaende.htmlComparing photos, the letter e at the end of Panzerstände is clearly visible, as are Feld…..er of the word Feldstecher. There is enough evidence about these rare binoculars to be read on the internet without repeating it here.The binoculars are in worn but very serviceable condition. The eye cups appear to be original and are undamaged. Both oculars focus smoothly. The optics are undamaged and provide quite good viewing despite them being dirty and requiring cleaning.
