zeiss ikon nettar - which model

hi

trying to identify a zeiss ikon nettar but i cannot figure out which model it is exactly as the details dont

match to any of the charts I have found

any help on identifying exactly what model this camera is greatly appreciated.

the serial on the body is U55629

and on the lens it says Novar Anastigmat 105mm 1:6.3 and i think the shutter is Vario

is it a 517/16 or 518 or 512???

any help would be great

thanks

Does it not have the 517/16, etc. number embossed into the covering somewhere?<br><br>

I got one myself for very little money last month. Can't remember the model No. though.<br><br><div></div>

Is there a "red signal next to the camera body release, indicating the film is ready" ?

If yes, it's a 518/16 "Signal Nettar".

Look at the back, alongside the catch that opens the back. The code no. is usually impressed in the leatherette

though if worn can be difficult to see. It will most likely be 517/02 or 518/02. It is a later Nettar and the 02

signifies 6x9 format.I think perhaps the 517 signifies the ordinary Nettar and the 518 the "Signal" Nettar but

don't quote me on that.<br>

ah yes, its on the back cover, it is a 517/2

thanks all
