Built, and that a typical serial number for 1900 might be No40,000 (as suggested above), rather than No75,000 which would be the mid-point from No1000 to say No151,000 in 1910. After WW1, there is a rapid recovery of production, but again there are big fluctuations in the apparent yearly. You are bidding on a SUPERB set of WW2 German Wehrmacht 6×30 Dienstglas Binoculars! These were brought back by US veteran at the end of the war. The German Army and Navy used a wide variety of optical equipment, including a 6×30 (6 power magnification with 30mm objective lens), 7×50, 8×30, 10×50 and others, being the standard issued optics.

Voigtlander Binoculars Serial Numbers 22

Hi. I appreciate that this is my first post on this forum but I am desperate for help and I know there are vintage binocular experts on here. I have acquired this pair of very old 'late 1800s' I think, and would like some information. There does not seem to be much online that goes back so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated. There is a magnification mark on one eyepiece which reads 0X I presume this to be 10X and the 1 has worn off. Oh and value if possible. There is a case which once was beautiful but is now a bit poorly. Thanks.

Leica Rangefinder M and Screw Mount Serial Numbers

LEICA SERIAL NUMBERS: Leica Serial Number data is courtesy of Leica. I've organized it in several ways, editing and color coding the tables to enhance clarity.

It answers many questions, but like all Leica lists, does not answer everything. In what may be a first, most Leica Birthdays are listed too -- another reason to have a party!

Here is a quick and easy way to get the year of manufacturing of Leica lenses (L, R, and screw mount) based on the serial number which is located on the front of the lens:

Update: A reader just sent me another way of determining the production year of Leica cameras and lenses: just got to this website, and type the serial number.

And another update on the serial numbers after 2004:

Leicavit vs. T-Winder

I’m as much of a Leica fan as anyone but I have to admit, the Japanese reincarnate of Voigtlander seriously one-upped the German Leica gods when they designed their T-Winder.

Let’s begin at the beginning.

Leica introduced a few rapidwinder devices for it’s screw mount 35mm rangefinder cameras in the 1930’s or 40’s.  The exact history seems to be a bit muddy as these are very rare.  By the time…
