I recently purchased a pair of binoculars in an antique shop for 40euro. I saw a 1942 year stamp on the leather case and a German Army stamp with the letters WaA 14. They were in good condition so I reckoned they were well worth 40 quid! When I got them home I saw a makers code blc with a blue dot which is the Carl Zeiss stamp. They are 7x50. Other marks are Dienstglas and a serial number. A search on the internet led down a quagmire of information and disinformation.
If anybody knows a bit about them I'd appreciate any info.
I'd like to know an approximate value and also if it is worth getting them cleaned- there is a bit of discolouring in one lense. My phone is in for repair but I'll try and upload a few photo's later.
Many thanks,
