Hi
Up for sale is brand new never used Saxon 705 OTA with tube rings and finder,
I have purchased this scope as a travel scope because it was very light weight about 1Kg only, but soon realised that because of its light weight built it is not suitable to attach my heavy 2kg DSLR to it
, so it sat in its box for the last 4 months
.
so it is up for sale.
