The Wild (Heerbrugg) company was founded in 1921 in Switzerland and their microscopes were notable for their fine engineering. Wild merged with Leitz in 1987 and was renamed Wild-Leitz in 1989 and has now become part of Leica Microsystems which is widely considered to be the current most prestigious microscope manufacturer.

Wild M20 Bright Field Condenser (3395)

The Wild M20 is one of the iconic compound microscopes with an excellent laboratory pedigree - particularly within the NHS laboratory service through the 1960’s to the 80’s. I can say  from personal experience that this reputation is well founded. This is a standard bright field condenser with flip top lens which has a numerical aperture of 0.40 to 1.30.  Iris diaphragm. In excellent condition.

Price £40.00 + vat

Wild x100 Phase Contrast Objective

Individual Wild objectives that have become separated from their parent microscope are difficult to come by these days. This is one of the best of them. A  Fluotar HI x100 phase contrast objective (RMS screw thread and 160mm tube length) with a numerical aperture of 1.30. Good condition.

Price £54.17 + vat

Wild Zernike Phase Contrast Set (3396)

Complete with its original case this is a complete Wild Zernike phase contrast set, and all original which is quite rare these days. Made for the Wild M20 which in itself is a iconic microscope. The set consists of a Zenike phase condenser with also a bright field position as well as phase rings for each objective.

Phase objectives x10 (0.25), x20 (0.40), x40 (0.65) and x100 oil immersion (1.25), together with the original Wild phase telescope. Condition excellent.
