Mate, you should start saving for 2 new purchases, maybe 3.
Firstly a frequent flyer membership for this scope. This could give you some benefit.
Next a nice glass case so you can mount this scope above the mantle piece where it can't hurt itself.
Lastly, buy another scope for everyday use.
I hope the trip to Japan gets it all fixed and returned safely to you.
PS. Try to make sure it doesn't come back during a customs strike or bagage handler strike. You might have it back by SV camp if all goes well.
Good luck Pete.
