Default Binocular marks

Hi guys, I also have a question about the binoculars. It's about the reticle marks. Would someone kindly explain to me what they represent and how to use them?

In The Submarine Commander's Handbook (U.Kdt.Hdb), it makes reference to a 1/16 scale. Would this be it?

"In every submarine attack, whether by day or by night, the attempt must be made to obtain reliable data for aiming (controlling) the torpedo, by exhausting all possibilities with care and deliberation (measuring the deflection with the aid of the line (of the horizon), increase the size of the masts at a given height in the 1/16 scale, overhauling as to course and speed, by day and night, on the surface)".
