This is an exceptional 20th century WWII German 12x60 observation binocular, presented on an adjustable wooden or chrome Tripod. The binoculars were manufactured by the company Carl Zeiss. Carl Zeiss is a German manufacturer of optical systems, founded in Jena, Germany in 1846 by optician Carl Zeiss. These binoculars were used for long-watch land and sky observation by German forces between 1939 and 1945. These optics have been originally restored in a time-consuming process to reveal a crystal clear Image. Externally, hand stripping the paint inch by inch and polishing to the modern luster resembling a chrome finish. These binoculars were Primarily Used for Monitoring incoming aircraft and outgoing artillery fire. When teamed with multiple spotters they could vector both distance and height. Although used throughout the theater of fighting, their primary use was to protect the perimeter of the homeland from allied bombing. All these Binoculars have world-class optics by the known Carl Zeiss. Each Binocular has a story to tell and we are proud to say that every piece is rigorously obtained from lost battlefields and hand restored at our workshop set in the heart of the British countryside. A stunning centerpiece for any home or office, each binocular has its own unique serial markings, which means no one else in the world except you would own this incredible, one of a kind, collectible piece.
