Le Naturaliste

Good afternoon,

I'm sorry for writing in English, but my french is not firm enough to write in Your beautyful language.

I am a new member in this forum and my subject is collecting Leitz Ortholuxes (I built a website about this theme, which can be visited here: http://www.leitz-ortholux.de).

The reason,why I'm looking for assistance in this forum and not in the German one ist the fact, that some three years ago a white Metallux like this was sold at ebay. (The one displayed here is not really existing. I photoshoped it from a white Ortholux)



Unfortunately I missed the end of the aauction and the only thing I know about this scope is, that is was sold to anyone in France.

So, my question is, if accidentally one of the members here knows where this microscope was sold or wether maybe one of You bought it?
For completing my collection, I'm looking for such a white Metallux. Ether for buying it or in trade for a black one or even a fully working Ortholux stand with incident light path.

All the best
Wolfgang

Hallo Wolfgang und Willkommen im Naturaliste
Vielleicht suchest du so was ? Es ist leider nicht ganz der selbe!
Der wurde bei Microscopies.com verkauft ,siehe:

Merci beaucoup André!

But this is a Laborlux 2. Originally built in the early 50s. But due to the fact, that on modern stands focussing is realised by shifting the stage, micromanipulation became difficult. Therefore a few of this Laborluxes were allowed to survive in contemporary white finish, I guess until the 70s or early 80s. Unfortunately I don't have any serious information about the period, how long they were manufactured.

But this is not, what i'm looking for. I'm actually looking for a white Metallux as shown in the photo above.

Cordialment
Wolfgang

Bonjour

Un Metallux blanc ou gris sur http://www.ebay.co.uk/, visible ICI.

Intéressant mais il faudrait aller sur place.
Je n'arrive pas à atteindre cette annonce par ebay.fr

Amicalement

Hi Wolfgang,

I've owned a white Metallux like this for maybe a few years and sold it on ebay (as far as I can remember) about 5 years ago, to another french guy.
I'll try to find anything about the deal, but it's been a while now.
Have you got the serial number ?
