    Description

    This beautiful Apotel optical tube assembly comes complete with a vintage Carl Zeiss AS 80mm X 840mm objective. Nothing else pictured comes with the optical tube assembly. Custom tripods and mounts can be purchased separately or you can use your equipment. It is possible to have a Zeiss rail mounted to the tube for anyone planning to use the telescope with a Carl Zeiss mount. There is a minimal charge to add the rail or make other alterations. (per customer request)
    We have sold a number of Apotel OTA's in the past, but have recently been running low on objectives. Mint CZ objectives are difficult to purchase today. Presently, there are four complete optical tubes available. Three gloss white, and one semigloss black. The tubes are fully baffled, which includes the tail piece. All have two inch focus units and were made by Starlight Instruments. They all have a fine focus adjustment (ten to one), and are the two and a half inch travel versions. The optical tubes are gorgeous with all threaded parts.... no unsightly screws to hold everything together. Check future listings for our birding scopes along with other astronomy accessories,
    Thanks for viewing. (((((( the last photo with the Zeiss bino-viewer shows our 2 inch to M44 adapter for Zeiss accessories. We make them here in CT, and usually have a few in stock for 95.00 each.
