Individual eyepiece focusing.
Solid metal construction with leather armouring.
Dimensions (when binoculars fully open): 150mm (W) x 105mm (H) x 42mm (D)
Weight: approx. 485g (1.1 lb)
Comes with leather strap and a worn leather case (no strap on the case).
Note:
No damage to the binoculars body or to the optics. The binoculars give reasonably clear images for their age.
General wear and tear to binoculars body and to the leather case appropriate with age and use. There is a slight dent to the edge of an objective lens protection ring but this is hardly noticeable.
Additional note: The objective lenses have not been opened for cleaning purpose inside the binoculars due to tight seals. There appears to be a small sealing material piece inside, which can be easily taken out once the objective lens is removed with a suitable tool.
