Interesting Kriegsmarine Huet 8x30 Find

[garys39]

Bought these today at a military vehicle jumble, previous owner scrapped paint off to reveal the following details, Dm-1v, D.F. 8x30 18* Artl, Kriegsmarine, they didn't notice on the other half beneath the paint Huet Paris, graticle in right half, optically good, I can't seem to find any details in Hans Seegers book, anybody else seen something like these or has any information ?

This is the one in my collection. Not Kriegsmarine but looks like same model which was continued to be made under occupation.

Also, here's a BBT Krauss of almost same design with what I believe is a German blue cross lubrication marking.
