I recall seeing similar ones, but can't remember if they were RblF 16 or 18. I guess they would be produced in many countries for similar guns.

I'm with Carles.

It's a Rblf 18 model. Interwar years. uses the 6400 scale so that checks out. Could be the vertical field prism housing was brushed down on the left hand side and restamped for another countries' naming conventions.

what's the other side of the head look like? and what are the markings on the horizontal stalk where the right hand azimuth wheel is located? should be something, if not German, in some language or other that stands for "higher" and "lower" .
