    Default Voightlander 6×30 Dienstglas and case

    Really excited to receive these today.
    I have not owned a good pair of binoculars before.
    Seller dated these as 41 or 42,if that seems correct to those who know.
    I have been unable to find information about the leather case,I know bakelite was common.
    Can I please ask if members think it would likely have been issued with this pair,or even pre-date it?
    Case is unmarked,no Waffenampt stamps on the binoculars either.
    A pleasure to enjoy the optics on these,it's great to buy a piece of history that I can still use and enjoy today.
    Sadly the neck strap is broken at both attachment points but the original fasteners are still present.
    I will look out for a rain cover and buttonhole retainer.
    As field equipment goes these are a wonderfully made,compact delight.
    To any new collectors like myself I recommend you find a pair.
    Many thanks to anyone who may be able to inform me about the case,or anything else.
    Thank you.

    The leather case should be marked, but I think it is similar age to the dienstglas.

    hi as black cat writes, the case should be marked, it could also be replaced by an early postwar. The waffenamt mark should be on the lower crossbar.Voightlander 6×30  Dienstglas and case

    Thanks for that Kekel.
    There is some corrosion on the crossbars,but I don't think it hides a stamp.
    Thanks also for commenting on the case.
