Cant help other than saying despite not having Dienstglas on them, the graticule is a good indicator of military use.
Not all army ones had them but I don't believe any civvy ones did!

I would of thought the blc code was a pretty good indicator of German WW2 origin.

To me they indeed look like WW2-ish binos.

Genuine wartime Zeiss 7x50 bino's. Military, of course. A shame that their original body coating is gone, but still more than worth the price and then some. Are the optics clear or any fungus?

Re: War period Binoculars?
Thanks for all the information, I feel much better with it now, knowing they are original war period.
Yes the optics are very clear, with minor dust spots. The body coating isn't really that bad, I think the camera flash makes it look much worse than it is.

Re: War period Binoculars?
Ww2 zeiss as already indicated these would be mostly issued to navy most probably shore batteries,they are the gas mask variety hence the retractable rubber eye cups,if there is no chipping to the prisms,in answer to your other question,no after the war zeiss dropped the three letter codes, a superb buy for 20 euros,worth 200 euros at least, nice find
