Originally mounted on an anti aircraft gun on a British warship in WWII. This binocular has a very wide field of view and very sharp image. It was made by Ross of London and the power is 3.5x. It is in excellent condition as is the original wood case. It is large and heavy. More useful as a WWII collectible unless you can find a way to mount it on a tripod. The circular disc has a neutral density filter that will slide in place if you need to look near the sun. It is also removeable with two wing nuts holding it in place. T is a cross hair reticle in one eyepiece. The oculars are huge and provide for quick focusing with the levers. Construction is cast metal and brass.
