Leitz Wetzlar Black Enamel: Which Model?

#1 Post by 75RR » Tue May 23, 2017 8:16 pm

Just picked up a Leitz Wetzlar Black Enamel that I though was a Laborlux Pol,

but looking at it again I do not think it is. Could it be a 1964 Dialux Pol?

Microscope came with 3 boxes of assorted objectives, a monocular tube and a few other things.

Not complete though as it is at the very least missing the power supply and lamp.

Will post better photos of the microscope and assorted bits soonish.

Note: Have updated the photos

Think it might be the Dialux-Pol S (non Bertrand lens version)

See link, scroll down: http://microscope.database.free.fr/550_ ... ux-Pol.pdf

Note: Model Dialux-Pol S confirmed.

A little more complete - showing the extra large vertical adjustment range of the stage (100mm) that this model was designed for.
