Our Ernst Leitz Wetzlar microscopes come in a variety of styles and finishes, ranging from brass, monocular compound microscopes to more modern-looking binocular and trinocular inverted phase and metallurgical microscopes. Leica Camera prides itself on its innovative, sustainable, and nearly perfect lenses and the high quality found in the German industrial process is evident in Leica products.
The current name is a combination of two words: the first three letters of “Leitz” and the first two letters of “camera.” Today, the company mostly sells cameras and sports optics like binoculars, monoculars, riflescopes, and rangefinders. It changed its name to Leica in 1986 due to the popularity of the name. These antique microscopes are available with most of their original parts and are not covered under warranty.Įrnst Leitz Wetzlar was founded by Ernst Leitz in 1869 in Wetzlar, Germany.
Many of the vintage Ernst Leitz Wetzlar microscopes featured on our website are believed to have been manufactured as early as 1925, and many are still branded with their original serial numbers from production. Long before Ernst Leitz Wetzlar changed its name to Leica Camera, the company produced high-quality microscopes during the last few decades of the 19th century into the early 20th century.
