I'd like to add I think Todd is right, the
people selling mirrors in eBay are offering
mirrors for Rolleiflex 3.5 models but Rollei
parts catalog numbers don't distinguish between
3.5 and 2.8 lenses specifically since we are
talking about the viewing lens, in fact the
Rolleiflexes with 3.5 taking lens use 2.8
viewing lenses from the first Automat model in 1937.

I am not certain what you are saying. Prochnow
identifies the viewing lenses through the Automat
to be from Optisches Anstalt Saalfeld, a Zeiss
subsidiary at the time (and again so, now that
Zeiss again controls Docter Optics). But I had
thought that, after that, the company supplying
the taking lens supplied the viewing lens, so
that a 3.5F with a JSK Xenotar would have a JSK
viewing lens, while one with a CZ Planar would have a CZ viewing lens.
Am I missing something?
