Has this one got the 2" back, or the American market 1.25" version?

Just a correction - the Vixen marketed ones are 920mm FL. The lens elements were made by Canon's optical manufacturer, as were Takahashi's FC objectives - the Tak and the Vixen/Celestrons are virtually identical,and both brands exhibit extraordinary Strehl ratios. The Vixen 102/Celestron is still considered in the top 3 best 4" APOs ever made, outperforming most more recent offerings easily.

In the absence of photos for now, I assume this has the peculiar to Celestron versions rotatable centrally mounted finder?
