Most advanced bino's from the 50' . All share focus on both okulars plus center focus and the "Stirnanlage", that ensure a steady hold.You see the stirnanlage in the middle between the okulars.
The build quality of these late Moeller/Wedel binoculars is difficult to explain, they must be seen and tested before you realise that they proberly are among the finest binoculars made. The prisms are modified roof prisms and the lenses are offcaurse coated -- but with rooftop prisms more important, the prisms are coated to , to avoid faseshift problems. When production stopped it was becaurse the marked for so advanced and expensive bino's faded,I guess they simply was to expensive. Before WW2 in the 20's M/W were a serious competitor of small binoculars of modern designs, esp. oposed Zeiss that late 20's, started a "war" against M/W.and ended up taking over the firm and it's patnt. It was these and the line of fine binoculars zeiss build on, with much of their new designs starting in 1928. After WW2 in the start of the 50's M/W was freed from these restrictions and started a compleatly new production of top notch bino's.
