Zeiss Victory 8x20 T* vs 8x20 BT* (1 Viewer)

Hi,

What are the differences between these two? I have seen both on eBay. They look identical at first glance. The cases look a bit different though.

Thanks!

I believe the B code stands for greater eye relief for glasses wearers.

Yes. The 'B' stands for Brille, the German word for spectacles/glasses. The 8x20 BT* presumably has more eye relief than the 8x20 T* (14 mm?), while both have twist-up eye cups.
