Description
For sale is a pair of vintage Bino Prism No.5 Mk II x7 binoculars, marked Bino Prism No.5 Mk 2 x7, No. 18699, and O.S.114 M.A..
These are classic military binoculars with individual eyepiece focusing mechanisms, meaning each eyepiece is adjusted separately rather than using a central focusing wheel. They also feature a range finder scale / graticules, making them an interesting collectable vintage military optics item.
The optics are intact and the binoculars achieve clear images for their age, so they remain very usable.
