Binoculars Kern 9 x 80

We have received some pictures of a very unusual binocular from a Swiss collector. It was built in war time. The serial number suggests it could be a prototype. Certainly, we have not seen this model of Kern  before. It has many unusual elements - in a very Kern’s style. The base of the oculars looks like another Kern product of an observation small binocular. The shape of the binocular is like 12 x 60. In same way the 9 magnification with 80 mm objectives is hardly ever seen.

The eye width adjustment is movement of the right hand  ocular as it looks from the pictures. Confirmed by the owner, this binocular is fitted with four filters. The reticule shape is circular with a dot in the center. 

If other collectors have knowledge of this binocular, please send to us and we will share that knowledge with others.
