Hello Andy
Your Hensoldt Nacht Dialyt is pre war. Made between 1928-1937. Wartime Dialyth is marked Dienstglas an usually bmj instead of Hensoldt. Wartime was 7x50. The case is original for a 7x50and made in 1944.
Best regards, Tom

Hensoldt Nacht Dialyt

I have a set of hensoldts but condition is not good the adjustable focus on the right side - degraded and corroded.
Glass wise clean and in good order she would be a nice set - pity.

Hello Andy
The value depends on the optical quality, pre war binos like this have central focusing and they are not waterproof and tend to have bad optics. My guess if in good condition is around 400 euros (Norway) with case.

Case

Benutzer, I would disagree with your comments regarding the leather case. If it is not marked with the eagle M below the Zeiss logo, it is for a contract binocular. Mine was a Persian contract in this exact case.

Hi Bill
well Persian contract is possible,too.
I have four of this 6x30 navy binos and only one have the eagle M but I got two of them directly from vet estate so IMO they are since the first day married.

Help about UZO

Hello, my friends
can someone help me in determining how the U-Boat crews in WW2 managed to make distance to target estimates using the UZO? Since the models I have yet seen lack any rangefinding devices incorporated (Coincidence telemeters or graded scales), how could it be done?
Thanks in advance

Hola, amigos míos.
¿ Puede alguno de vosotros ayudarme a determinar como las tripulaciones de los U-Boote en la SGM eran capaces de estimar la distancia usando el UZO? Porque estos dispositivos carecían de dispositivos telemétricos, tales como los que equipan los telémetros de coincidencia o bien escalas graduadas? ¿ Cómo lo hacían?
Gracias por anticipado

6x30 Persian

I stand corrected if they were for the Persian contract they should have the filter holder in the lid.

CXN set

Well first of all the bino seems to be repainted at some parts.
And i dont think the case is original to that bino as well.
But it is an original bino.

Both of the are repainted and the case which is next to the tan colord CXN is for the "7x50 bmk Dienstglas"

Posted these up as a lot of retouched sets are appearing - it is going to be something of a blight for the future.
Thanks for the views gents.
Which leads me to this little one.
I got this in the mail toady , a gent has asked me to post it up for an opinion on it .
The set is not mine and if I am not mistaken this one or one very like it has been discussed in the past.
To me it is an obvious fake .
SS - dienstglas 6 x30 ? Not one I would buy.

[Palmenmuster]

I agree with you, a obvius fake.
