140 omc

Hi,

My observing style have changed over the years. So it's time to let go the Orion UK Mak 140 OMC. It replace my old Meade ETX125 and IMHO it's class above especially with the focuser. I managed to have a pleasant viewing of Mars at 267x and I was pretty sure it can go higher if i had shorter eyepiece at my disposal at the time.

This telescope was cleaned up and collimated by Bintel pre-Covid and only been used a handful of time (view Mars of course)

It comes with:

Metal dew shield (not shown)
2inch visual back
Improvised front cover
Meade ETX125 travel case

Asking for $380 including travelling case.

Full review here:

Thanks
