I've been sort of following this thread on CN.
Valery is indeed a highly respected optical designer and it would be foolish to dismiss this scope out of hand. Seven years or so in the works is a lot of R & D.
However, I sort of wonder - to what end?
The 'premium' APO market, if not exactly flooded, is certainly well stocked with the likes of TEC, AP, Tele-Vue, Takahashi, APM etc. and more-than acceptable (occassionally class-leading) refractors can be had from Astro-Tech, ES, TS and Stellarvue at moderate prices.
I suppose if he can produce an AP quality scope at a WO price, the world may beat a path to his door, but they're already doing that for his very limited production, and outstanding, Aries Maks.
Oh well.
Good luck to him!
