A stunning speckled brown bakelite 6×30 binocular case. Later in the war when the Germans ran out of pigment for bakelite they switched over to different fillers. Sawdust was one of the filling materials used, creating a interesting speckled finish. The brown bakelite dienstglas containers where mostly found with tan 6×30 binoculars. The case is in very good, undamaged condition and has a very aesthetic and vibrant light brown colour which would nicely attribute a late war uniform setup.

Complete Dienstglas binocular case strap in excellent condition. The strap is supple and complete with loop, end piece and buckle. Hard to find spare!

Large Flak spotting binoculars cushion in good condition. Rare to find piece that is missing on most of these optics. The rubber is firmly affixed to the metal base with only some partially loose on the top. The head rest is in very good condition with the rubber supple and not hardened or shrunk.

Nice original 6×30 binoculars or Dienstglascase in good, undamaged condition. The case is manufactured out of black coloured phenolic resin (bakelite) and is undamaged. The case features leather belt loops and a Pressstoff pulling tab on the closing latch which are all still intact and undamaged. Very nice and textbook example!

Excellent 6×30 binoculars or Dienstglas in very good condition. The binoculars are nicely marked dow which indicates production Opticotechna GmbH which is a well known ZF4 and trench periscope manufacturer but is not often encountered on binoculars! The binoculars are of pre war Czech manufacture which have been remade into the German 6×30 pattern around 1940. If you look closely you can still make out the pre war Czech markings. Very hard to find binoculars!

The binoculars retains all of its rubber (armoured) parts. A small portion of the thick rubber parts are cracked because of the drought of the material but are original to the piece. The binoculars are finished in the typical yellow/green Kriegsmarine paint and this remains for up to 90%. The sight is still very good and the lenses are clean and clear of visible damages. Nice and rare to find binoculars which were also used with U-boot crews!

Rare OB Fernsprecher 43 (Fernsprecher für ortsfesten Betrieb) or field telephone model 43 for usage in fixed locations.

Very nice and rare example!
