For sale Achromatic refractor and 6" Newtonian optics package.
Italian Version of the Achromatic refractor Skywatcher 120/600 the brand is Ziel and it's been manufactured in the same factory in china (the well known Synta).
I sell the same package that Andrews advertises for $999.
Here is the price from his website:

120 x 600mm OTA with EQ5 mount,
dual axis motor drives and hand
controller...A$999

Excellent conditions, the tube has only a couple of little scratches on the paint.
It performs greatly for deep sky observing, it will give you breathtaking views of deep sky objects like M42, Omega Centauri, and many more.
I swear that in a dark sky you won't be disappointed!!
Included the following accessories:
90deg Diagonal mirror
Filter Minus Violet 1
6X30 Finderscope
Tube Rings

The mount is an Eq5 motorized in both axis with hand controller.
I replaced the electronics with a PIC motor driver that performs brilliantly,
even better than the original one.

Newtonian primary mirror 6" f/5 and secondary elliptic both pyrex glass.
Primary cell made of plywood, secondary holder.

I ask for the lot $500 ONO plus postage.

Pick up possible in Perth and surroundings.
Pictures coming soon.
