80mm ed lens

[elken2004]

Does anyone have an 80mm objective lens (doublet or etc.)

roughly 450 to 555mm focal length

I have an 80mm WO doublet which was in the first WO 80 mm scopes. I can't remember what the glass was but will dig it out tomorrow. It was used very little because in those days I was seduced by eternal "improvements"
To be honest I couldn't see much difference between the two.

Brand-new for $495 (+ a few tens of $$ shipping) from Germany.
A real FPL-53 triplet with outstanding quality.
