Hi Van, the model that you have was made for for the German army hence the H/6400 designation. Originally they were made for the French army for viewing from an emplacement or armoured vehicle. See page 119 ,Rohan's A Guide to Hand Held Military Binoculars

Great, thanks for the info.. I had seen a picture of this style poking out of the cupola of an early Tiger 1...thought that was peculiar at the time but made since.
Do you have any Idea what a fair price I should pay for these, I think the guy is looking for around a $1,000.00 for them, I thought that might be a bit high...
Thanks again for the help..
Van
