20th Century Japanese Pair Of Naval Bridge "Big Eye" Binoculars By Nikon c.1940
About the Item
A rare set of Japanese naval bridge “big eye“ binoculars by Nikon manufactured during WWII by Tokyo Kogaku Kikai (Tokyo Optical Company). They have been expertly cleaned and hand polished. With a magnification of 20 (magnification) x 120 (aperture), and mounted on a telescopic cast steel stand, these exceptional binoculars display entirely original optics in a distinctly Japanese straight- body instrument. Undeniably a true piece of artwork created from steel, brass, and aluminium, these binoculars offer astounding visual clarity. They have a sleeker, more modern look than some of the other binoculars of that period and are guaranteed to look incredible in any room or balcony or terrace. Complete with original military protective case.
