WTS: Vixen ED80SWT

Post by tphilip »

Nearly Brand New In Box Vixen ED80SWT for sale. This is a 80mm F9 ED apochromat refractor. The whole scope including the lens is made in Japan unlike the current Vixen's which are made in China. This is a high quality refractor not to be confused with the budget priced ED80Sf and puts up very clean and sharp colour free views. But being thats its F9 it is quite long, although it is easy to handle as its very light, and having a longer F ratio means it has no discernible chromatic abberation.

Comes with Vixen red dot finder, Vixen flip mirror and tube rings and Vixen dovetail. All in the original box.

The focuser is 2" so will accept 2" diagonal and adapters.

Selling for $725. If interested can be picked up from Tanjong Pagar during office hours. Please PM me.

Thanks,

Tim

No interest so I'll reduce it to $750. Its as good as new, the only signs of wear are on the flip mirror and where the bolt tightens on the dovetail plate. This was a USD$1000 scope when new.

If interested PM me.

Thanks,

Tim
