There are only two settings available, whatever they are set for. In seven years of playing I've never heard of going from 1x to 2x to 3x.

Default stock settings are 1x and 4x for the observation periscope and 1.5x and 6x for the attack 'scope. Real life was 1.5x and 6x for periscopes of the Kriegsmarine and the US Navy, and as far as I'm aware for everyone else. GWX uses 10x on the attack 'scope on the principle that the pixels aren't as clear as real life views, which is true. I switched them back to 6x for my own play.
