Wanted: Bikini covers for 4x36, 6x42, 3-12x50 (with riveted straps)

[truser00]

Hi,

I'm looking for bikini covers for a few Schmidts: 4x36, 6x42, and 3-12x50.

Nobody has any in stock in the UK anymore and the ones that Schmidt sent me directly seem to be for the latest scopes with thicker rubber eyepiece covers as they're all loose over the eyepieces.

Specifically after the old ones with riveted straps like Klenchblaize's or the even older ones like in my photo below.

TIA.

Ha incredible. Thank you!

The type you're referring to were made by WEGU DBGM and are not S&B/Zeiss/Swaro branded. This is one attached to my Swaro 6X42:

If OK, PM me an address and I'll get it posted next week.

If you're still looking for some, I too have an assortment of bikini covers. I can have a look when I'm back in later.

Realise I am dredging up an old thread here, but I just picked up an S&B 6x42 Klassik from a fellow forum member and am looking for a cover for it. I haven’t been able to find anything available in the UK. Could anybody point me in the right direction for a workable solution?

Not wanting to hijack but would you happen to have a set for an 8x56?

When I'm back home I'll check. I used to have bikini covers for an 8x56, though it's a, certainly I'd have some Butler Crick flip up covers. I have a huge box of bits like that, including scope mounts etc.
I'll check a bit later when I'm back in.

Thanks! I’ve got some flip ups but it’s always bothered me that I haven’t for the bikini covers for this scope…I don’t think I mentioned that it’s an S&B

I've got two pairs of bikini covers, which have a clear lens each end. Objective size is 58mm internal, ocular 42mm internal.
I'm pretty sure they came off of Schmidt 8x56 scopes that I've owned.
