Backside view of a Panerai Elettrosegnalatore GPF 2/52 Brevetto IT. N° 1738/53.
Beside other versions (some with remote control), this type can be controlled by the operator with both hands. A turning wheel to fade light in and out (inserire / disinserire) is placed in the center of the backside. A crosshair sight is placed on the top.
This instrument was stored and transported in a wooden box (visible in the background).
