I saw an M42 mount Biometar 80 some time ago, and I saw an Exakta mount Biometar 120 offered for sale about a year ago too although I don't recall if it was a fixed mount or just a P6 lens with adapter.
If the 120 was offered as fixed Exakta mount, it could be possible that the 80 was as well. |

No, I've never seen one like that! I have an 80/2.8 Tessar in M42 that looks just like that Biometar, and even the Tessar does not seem to be very common in that mount. My Tessar appears to be the same lens that was standard on the Exakta 66 (and I think it was also on early Praktisixes) so it stands to reason that there would have been an M42 Biometar .... especially since the Biometar is so much better a lens than the Tessar.
I expect that this is a collectible lens, and for modern use a P6 Biometar and adapter might be a more economical route to the same destination.
