The ad descirbes the lenses as "made in Japan to Carl Zeiss
specifications".  I have an early Goodmans stereo cassette deck that was
also described thus.  The "Goodmans specification" extends as far as the
name on the badge, the rest is pure Nakamichi :-)  As you say, I would
guess these lenses were generic Japanese designs that were CZJ in name alone.
