Optics & communications equipment

Nice original large aiming reticle or sight as issued with the D.F. 10×80. The reticle remains in overall good condition but has some damages and a repair as can be seen in the pictures. Nice example!

Textbook original set of 10×50 Panzer binoculars or Dienstglas in good and complete condition. The Dienstglas is complete with the original black Pressstoff carrying case dated 1942 and retains the bakelite rain cover and neck strap. The neck strap has a fragile point but is nicely marked bmj. Most parts (the binoculars itself, the case and the neck strap) are nicely marked bmj which indicates production by Hensoldt u. Soehne, Mechanisch-Optische Werke AG, Wetzlar. Sadly one of the bakelite eye cups is missing. Hard to encounter such a complete set!

Rare Kriegsmarine U-boat deck gun binoculars. Hard to find original example in good used condition. The sight is in good useable condition and was mounted on the 8,8CM deck gun mounted on U-boats. The binoculars retain up to 95% of its original wartime finish, their rubber oculars and mount point. Very hard to find optics!

Large Flak spotting binoculars marked D.F. 10×80 CXN in externally good condition. The binoculars are in very good condition complete with its original tan eyeshields which are always missing or repainted. The face cushion is also present. The binoculars should be cleaned internally.

Useful spare part that is often missing to the FF33 field phone in good, usable condition.

Nice carrying case for the 7/10X50 binoculars or Dienstglasmade out of black coloured Pressstoff. The case is in unissued condition without any damages, only the hardware shows surface rust. Nice example!

Textbook German army issue binoculars or Dienstglas strap in very good condition.

Rare complete 10×45 scope with mount for the Kommandohilfsgerät 35. The mount and optics are both in usable condition but could always be serviced if needed. The mount is rare and goes straight into the Kommandohilfsgerät 35 but is using the same principle as many other German optic mounts. So in theory; it could also be mounted to various other devices. The mount has been restored yet both optics retain their original tan colour. A very rare to find set in excellent condition.

Textbook unmarked 6×30 Dienstglas strap

Textbook pre war leather Dienstglas neck strap in very good condition. This example is made out of thick, brownish leather and has black painted brass pips. The strap is nicely marked E. Busch, 1937. These neck straps are often damaged or missing and finding a spare is rather hard, especially marked examples. Excellent spare example!

Throat microphone used by armored troops and radio operators. The microphone is in very good and in my opinion unissued condition.

Rare Fprüf. b or Frequenzprüfgerät b für Sender und Empfänger der Typen 10W.S.a,b,c/ 20W.S.b,c,d & Ukw.E.b1,c1,d1 was a single-frequency signal generator that was used to calibrate the local oscillator of the 10W.S.a,b,c/ 20W.S.b,c,d transmitters & Ukw.E.b1,c1,d1 receivers; 25 – 48 MHz, Quarz 2.830 kHz. This signal generator employed a quarz 2.830 kHz.crystal to generate the necessary test frequency. The Fprüf. b was powered from the same source as the receiver and used a special power connector shown below. Different frequency quarz crystals could be used with this device.

The cushion on the inside has come loose on the lid but this is not really disturbing. Very nice and textbook example!
