Got the chrome one apart.  Great help from Tom A too.

The outer sleeve is just that - a longish tube.

The middle optical assembly just spins right out, and all the lenses are 
glued into it, in one compact "optical head".  I don't think I'll 
disassemble it any further, but transplant the whole optical head into 
the Nikon 5cm brightline finder housing.

Should work fine.

Japanese outer housing, German optics.  Best of all worlds.
