Hi,
actually late 60s with Made in Germany sounds fine as the government of the german democratic republic decided on May 7th 1970 to replace the Made in Germany with Made in DDR / GDR much to the chagrin of CZJ employees and those of other export oriented industries who though of it as a stigma rather than a quality label at first.

Also the London agreement between Zeiss West and CZJ over naming rights etc. which might have had an influence here only happened in 1971...
