WW II Navy Binoculars

TJ304 · Oct 25, 2020

My father's WWII Navy Binoculars. He said that he brought them
home from his years in the Navy in WWII.

Good condition is good. Clear vision.

Includes original case.

Trade for an interesting firearm.

Those look interesting. Could you post a photo of the tops where the model number and other stampings are placed?

I have a binocular branded Bausch&Lomb supposed to be WWII era. They look similar to the set pictured. Case too. The low light performance is far superior to any other bino I have.

Really cool!

Fun Fact: the Navy in WWII "borrowed" binoculars from citizens. There was a national movement to provide binoculars to the Navy. Most of these "on loan" binoculars were purchased from their owners for a small sum... but some binos unbelievably found their way back to the original owners after the war!

I'm sure this pair of binoculars has a story to tell and I hope they find a fitting home.

Brand? Specs? (Power, and lense sizes) Perceived value?
TIA,

I have a pair of these. When you look through them they have range finder markings like a periscope.
