Description
Made by Ross of a large tooled alloy and aluminum construction, these 10×50 power binoculars are in VERY GOOD used condition! The lens bodies retain about 90% of their original, rough textured, black finish. The aluminum end piece fittings retain about 90% of their original finish, as well as the bakelite eye cups. Some slight chips and wear, but nothing that takes away from the overall appearance. The focus adjustments still function perfectly on both eye pieces, but there is some spotting as you can see in the photos. Optics are out of alignment, so they would need a claening/adjustment to function correctly. Though I am fairly confident these are ROSS, and NOT Ernst Wezlar, they are marked with the impressed designation:
Dienstglas
10×50
No. 715235
H/6400
E. Leitz
Wezlar
Most likely someone has added these fake plates and markings as a way to increase the value. Strap is original to this set. An interesting example, it would make a great addition to any collection!
