Binoculars 7x50 beh 412746

[Tanker Mike]

Hello,

More relics from the closet clean out. I have these set of binoculars that I believe to be made by Ernst Leitz. They only have these markings on the left side.

No other markings anywhere else. When I got them 20 years ago I was told they were WWII Kriegsmarine issue. Is that correct? I doubt that now due to the lack of any KM markings.

Hi Tanker Mike,
Earlier examples of 7x50 beh KM binos were more expressive and were KM property marked and referred to lens coatings with a (T) marking.
Your 7x50 KM model preceded the rubber armoured beh 7x50 which was introduced in 1943.

Thanks

Thanks for the information.
