Obsession 15" Classic

For sale is an Obsession 15” f/4.5 scope (#154). It is in superb condition, and has been looked after with meticulous care. All components of this scope present very, very well (optics, coatings, materials, etc). Please see the images, and I more than welcome and encourage any inspection in person.






Specs:
  • Nova primary with enhanced coatings (96%)
  • Secondary coated by QSP with 98% reflectivity
Inclusions:
  • Shroud
  • UTA light shroud extender
  • fans
  • Secondary dew heater
  • Counterweights (see 2nd image)
  • Antares 9x50mm finder
  • Telrad
  • Setting circles encoders (8K) and hardware
  • Argo Navis (brand new, never used)
  • All powered by 7AH battery (sits in rocker box)
Also included is a full-size storage box (it can be seen behind the scope in the 1st image) for free (I will have no use for it).


If you have your own DSC computer, I can remove the Argo Navis from the sale. Asking price of $5,250, and am open to all reasonable offers. Telescope is in Berowra (northern Sydney), NSW. Please PM me if interested.

Just wondering how old the scope is (#154 seems like an early build)

Thanks in advance.

The scope was built in 1995, but is in excellent condition.

Anyone is welcome to inspect in person, and I can provide more detailed/high res images if needed.
