Original set of WW2 German Flak 10x80 Ground Crew Binoculars.
These have to be the best condition examples we have ever had or come across. They came in this last week from the family of the veteran who brought them back at the end of WW2. They are in stunning condition, the rubber is soft and spongy, not dried up. They are optically very good.
The small air bubble seen in the photos doesn't appear to have an effect although they could do with a good clean.
The paintwork is exceptional for the age and overall they are just untouched.
The serial number puts it mid to late WW2 with the blue triangle putting it between 1943 and the end of the war. The red X indicates it is greased up for cold weather use.
It is truly an excellent piece and one that would be near impossible to upgrade in any collection.
It will of course be shipped VERY well wrapped, as it weighs around 7kg.
Please check the photos for a detailed description of the item.
We are always happy to combine postage. Please send us a message to organise this.
