Naval binoculars, 20x 110, USSR, c.1970s

Notes

A superb and very rare set of naval binoculars, with ultra high magnification, these were designed primarily for use in naval and maritime operations, and also from port. The 20x magnification combined with 110mm objective lenses impressively gathers light, providing use in low light, night as well as daily duty. The size of this set not only has genuine long distance usability but also offers an incredible visual appeal. We date manufacture of these USSR binoculars, made during the cold war period, to c.1970s. The lens protector is also present as is the original snoot. A wonderful addition for any room with a view, this binocular set has been professionally stripped, serviced and inspected prior to being hand polished. They are mounted on a sturdy tripod which can be height and angle adjusted. Dimensions approx; (head) 70cm long, 27cm high , 39 across. The stand approx 130-180cm.
