I've recently inherited my late father's HR/5s. I thought my Opticron Vega 3s were good until I tried these. The clarity and focus is amazing.
The code is 902806, and J-B56 is stamped on the front. Does that give any clue as to date of manufacture?
Dad lived in Worcester which was the home of the Kays Mail Order catalogue - remember those days? Items returned by customers were usually sold at discount prices in the staff shop rather than returned to stock. Dad said he paid £60 for them, and he said that was half the normal selling price.
I'm keeping them for obvious sentimental reasons, and might sell the Opticrons.
