Berning Robot Royal 24
The Robert Royal 24 is a 35mm rangefinder-style camera produced by Otto Berning & Co. of Germany, the maker of the Robot series. It uses a spring-driven motor wind for rapid sequential exposures, a feature that defined the Robot line from its pre-war origins through the post-war Royal models.
Auction data for the Robot Royal 24 is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £322 from 1999 is the only verified data point available, so any present-day worth or price guidance based on this alone would be unreliable. As of today in 2026, buyers asking what a Robot Royal 24 sells for should treat that figure as a historical reference rather than a current market value, and seek further comparable hammer results before transacting.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Robot Royal 24 worth today?
The only verified UK auction record in our data is a £322 hammer price from 1999, which is too sparse and too old to establish a reliable current value.
How much does a Robot Royal 24 sell for at auction?
Available hammer-price evidence is limited to a single sale at £322, so the price a given example achieves today will depend heavily on condition, completeness and bidder interest on the day.
