Okay... after reading everyone else's thoughts on this matter... here are mine FWIW:
• This is a one-of-a-kind custom rear sight • By a European Gunsmith (the name "Herbe Werle" comes to mind... • Either for himself (Self-gratification on creation of his concept), OR • Done at the request of a wealthy client (probably because he a had a rifle that had similar rear sight) • The work was not cheap because it likely involved a lot of experimentation and testing • Other than its uniqueness, I don't think it adds any particular value or advantage to the gun. That's my $0.02
