WWII German E. Leitz Wetzlar 10x50 Dienstglas binoculars, serial 2487876, weighing 996 grams with full mechanical function and clear optics despite a minor 1/8" chip on right objective. Collectors and military historians buy these for authenticity and documented wartime optical quality, while some dealers source them for high-end resale to enthusiast markets. Verify the chip doesn't affect sight picture under magnification, confirm the leather case condition before assuming provenance, and inspect all glass surfaces for separation or internal haze that photos won't reveal.
