  • Original Item: Only one available. This is a nice pair of German Fernglas 08 binoculars by Carl Zeiss of Jena, nicely marked on the carrying case belt loops by Emil Busch A.G. They are faintly marked with serial number Nr 6728 on the hinge tension nut along with Fernglas 08 and the Zeiss logo. These field glasses come complete with the Ersatz carrying case.


    The optics are in excellent totally clear condition with working focus adjustments on both sides. The paint on the binoculars themselves is very well-retained without many issues to speak of, and the metal eye-cover is still retained on the strap. The case shows age and some dryness but overall in very good condition. It still has the original Gebrauchsanweisung für das Fernglas 08 (Instructions for use for the binoculars 08) attached to the inside of the top cover. One of the two securing straps on the side of the case is broken.


    A nice set with a scarce Ersatz case. Ready to display!
