I couldn't resist getting this 1950 Jupiter8. I have seen a photo of an optical block (not this lens) and the Zeiss marks were written or stamped on it. So, I guess I will see if this is the case with this particular lens. But I would like to see a tutorial on dismantling this lens, before I start fumbling around with it. I would rather try to do this myself, but if I change my mind, I wonder if there are recommendations for a lens technician. I imagine that it wouldn't be difficult, but I've been wrong before. So, any web sites, or advice, is greatly appreciated.

My technician can clean it, if not shipped yet to USA ship it to him and he will send it to you once lens is cleaned.
Contact to me in pm if interest, congrats for this great lens!
