Hi Marc,
Body serial number: A46841
From what I can tell, it was made between Nov 1953 and Sept 1954
sometime, in Stuttgart factory.
Cheers,
Thor

My first impression was that this was a new camera. On closer
inspection, it is indeed used, but has been well taken care of. The
glass is incredible. No T marking on this one (Zeiss-Opton Nr 1124944
Sonnar 1:1,5 f=50mm),

This is a late lens to be marked "Zeiss-Opton" and not Carl Zeiss.
They
had quit using the T mark on coated lenses by that time but your lens
is
certainly single-coated.
Your lens is part of a batch of 4,000 such lenses produced in 1954.
And what is the camera body serial number?
