While researching my binoculars I came across this site. I didn't realize the rarity or background of them. It's a Carl Zeiss Jena 7x50 u-boat. Under the rubber eyepiece it's stamped BLC then 61694. They're olive green, very clean with no rust. Only one (1) chip in the paint about 1/4" dia. The rubber is in great shape with only slight cracking from age. With this serial #, does anyone know any more details about it? Although I don't have plans to sell them at this time, any idea of the value? I saw a rusted pair on ebay for almost $4,000. Mine is in far better condition. No strap, case or covers.
