    Please help me identify and fix an old pair of binoculars

    So after some back and forth with Zeiss, they sent my email to an expert on old binoculars and I got an answer. "Your idea that it is a Zeiss is correct.

    Thanks so much for the help. I will try. I also am waiting to hear back from Zeiss since earlier in this thread it was suggested that it looks like a Silvarem.

    Please help me identify and fix an old pair of binoculars

    I have a pretty good quality pair of Binoculars that belonged to my grandfather which is probably at least 50 years old and from Europe. I would love to know who the manufacturer is but there are no markings. Images are attached. More importantly, when I try to turn one of the eyepieces to...
