General Auction including Antiques & Collectables, Gold & Silver.
A pair of Binox 12×50 binoculars featuring a black textured body and metal construction. The left prism housing plate is marked with a mountain-style logo and Binox Coated Optics, while the right plate specifies 12×50 magnification and a 5 degree field of view. The central focus wheel cap also carries the manufacturer logo. The binoculars are equipped with a central focusing wheel and a right-eye diopter adjustment ring marked with plus, zero, and minus symbols. Attached is a woven blue and yellow striped fabric neck strap. The lot includes a matching black textured carrying case featuring a silver-tone metal clasp and a brown leatherette shoulder strap.
Condition report:
The binoculars show signs of significant use with paint loss and chipping to the black finish on the metal edges of the prism housings and objective lens barrels. The textured body covering remains largely intact. The lenses appear to be in good physical condition without visible cracks, though the internal optics and mechanical alignment have not been tested for clarity or collimation. The carrying case shows scuffing to the exterior surfaces and wear to the strap.
