These Carl Zeiss 10x50W binoculars were produced solely for the West German market. The East German Jena factory competed for optics sales against Carl Zeiss West Oberkochen with these particularly high quality binoculars. The unique branding on these limited edition binoculars reflects an era of dispute and conflict over the Carl Zeiss logo usage in West Germany.Although for all sales outside of West Germany, Jena DDR was permitted to use the shared Carl Zeiss logo, inside of West Germany however, Jena DDR was legally forbidden to use the logo.To challenge this Zeiss Jena DDR produced the VEB CARL ZEISS Jena ausJENA JENOPTEM 10X50W to bypass legal restrictions and only a limited amount with this branding were made for the small West German market. These are particularly rare as numbers in circulation are incredibly low and for any collectors of historic Zeiss these are a must have item.They are in great shape, smooth, clean and sharp. The serial number is 4362604 and the central post has ‘Made in DDR’ stamped on it.These have been rarely used and the wear is minimal and slight.The optics are really clear with no blemishes or marks and the collimation is perfect.
The straps and original case are in good condition, the case does have some letters stenciled on the inside (Check Pictures)
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to own these unique Zeiss 10x50Ws as they will not come up often in auction.
