Hello,
I have been going through some old Optics I have from my dad. I am currently home in bed, staring out the window, watching the local birds. I have a pair of Zeiss he gave me in 1982 and I love them, I used them at raceways. He had a pair of these Swift 7 x 35, and they are perfect for the area I'm looking at. My question is, where can I find the info on these. I had the crazy idea of selling them to get something new, but these are pretty nice for what I'm doing. So I cancelled the ad and I'm gonna keep these. I have heard the Mark ll were only made in the larger size, and that seems to be all I'm finding. I've read up on the lenses as the markings tell me that, so here is what the entire back side says;
Swift on left side, under that Immersion tested, under that Fog Proof, under that Fully coated. Now right side Storm King in blue, under that Mark ll in blue, 7 x,35
393ft. at 1000yds.
Model NO 718
No 1-730484
Center Markings JB2
Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks for looking Cheers B
