Ian, the 6,3/135 Tenastigmat in the auction I linked to above ( https://www.ebay.de/itm/203059183602 ) has an outside diameter of 30 mm, just like your Goerz-Ihagee Doppel-Anastigmat. I asked the seller and he sent me a picture of him measuring it with a caliper.

Dogmars were sold both in barrels and in shutters as well as on cameras, but I think the Tenastigmat was for the Tenax cameras only, same as the Tenaxiars, and that's why they were so named. Dogmar was a well known name and a respected lens, so I think both Goerz and Ihagee would have been reluctant to rebadging it. But with the Tenastigmat it's a different story. It was named for a series of cameras and had less "prestige", so it could have been rebadged for Ihagee. Maybe the Tenastigmat was an updated version of the Syntor (6,3 instead of 6,8)?
