Nettar cameras have been produced by Zeiss Ikon since 1934 in many versions. In total, I counted 12 main design versions. They were all for a 120 type roll film, but they differed in the size of the frame (6x9cm, 6×6 or 6×4.5), the type of central shutter and the type of lens.
Based on https://camerapedia.fandom.com/wiki/Zeiss_Ikon_Nettar, I think that my camera is the Nettar II 517/16 (produced since 1949) or 518/16 Eg (produced since 1949). After all, it is a technical monument.
