This early Skywatcher was the forerunner of the 102/1000 Black Diamond. It has been in storage for 18 years. Original manual and accessories.

Solidly built 3.5kg OTA with metal dew/sun shield. Unusually, the model has collimation screws for the object glass.

The dual-axis motorised mount is suitable for any 102mm refractor or any smaller scope that has its own mounting rings (6" spaced locating centres on the mount head.)

The tripod is aluminium with no issues and is perfectly capable of handling the 3.5kg OTA plus extra gear.
