The Nettar cameras were a kind of an entry level line  in the Zeiss Ikon
family.  Zeiss made a dizzying array of cameras, and under the Nettar
name alone there are lots of choices.

The lens on this one is a three element Novar. 
There were other lens choices for this model.

This 515/2 is quite a bit larger than the little 515. 
This camera takes 6x9cm pictures on 120 film.
It has an optical viewfinder that actually gives
a close aproximation of what you will get on the film.

Given it's age, this camera is in very good to excellent condition.  The shutter works although I can't guarantee that the speeds will still be accurate, the lens looks nice and clean and the aperture is in good order.  Photographs below are of the actual camera.
