Soehne, Mechanisch-Optische Werke AG, Wetzlar. Beautiful grey coloured 10×50 Panzer Dienstglas. Not to be confused with the early postwar produced examples which lack serial numbers and are marked DF.

Excellent optical sight battery box intended for the MGZ or similar optics. This is the last produced model with simplified closing latch. The case is finished in tan factory paint which retains up to 85%. The protective cloth is complete but the battery insert is missing. Very nice example!

Excellent Presstoff tool pouch for signal troops or Nachrichtentruppe. This pouch is quite rare to find in this condition. The pouch seems to be marked but this is impossible to read because of the material. The pouch is nicely named on the inside to Lt. M .(Leutnant M.). The pouch is complete with its internal divider and all the leather parts are in good, undamaged and supple condition!

The binoculars are complete with all of its accessories; leather rain cover, neck strap and button loop, most of them with a pre war WaA. The binoculars are from a typical pre war high and heavy quality with brass in the construction. The optics are clear and the Strichplatte still retains in the right ocular as it should. Sadly one bakelite eye cup has a damage to it. Excellent untouched pre war Dienstglas!

The clock is complete with the original wooden housing which retains a lot of its original factory applied paint. The wooden housing is marked with an WaA on the bottom underneath the extendable stands. The clock is in good working condition and is untouched!

Textbook all bakelite pattern Stirnlampe or headlight in very good condition. The The Stirnlampe is complete with its complete cable, bakelite battery case and elastic head band which are all undamaged and functional. The battery box lacks a compartment for a blue coloured lens and this was example is most likely late war manufactured without the blue lens! Multiple parts, on the battery box as well as on the bakelite bulb housing are nicely marked etl which indicates production by Krieger u. Faudt, Berlin. Textbook all bakelite example in excellent condition. The cable is damaged at the end where it meets the battery box; it will be neccesary to repair this. Otherwise a very nice and matching example!

Finding marked spare accessories is hard, let alone a matching set of them. Hard to upgrade set!

reichsbahn issue FF33 field phone in good condition.

Rare camera that was used in combination with the Flak Kommando Hilfsgerät 35. It was marked and made by Siemens. This camera was attached to the Flak Kommando Hilfsgerät to track data tracked by the crew. It was introduced to evaluate the crews; it made live firing for practice obsolete. The camera has a modified power supply; I am not sure why that is. The camera looks to be in good condition and with some work could be made working again.

Wehrmacht issue volt meter marked Metrawatt 1937 in good used condition. Hard to find in good condition, with original cables and label.

Excellent short leather strap/buckle as attached to the carrying case for the Dienstglas. This is an early example made out of typical high quality leather!
