Steampunk Diagonal, WO

I have just taken delivery, and coincidentally purchased the last of Williams Optics (WO) exquisite 2" Dielectric Diagonals.
It is the most gloriously Steampunk of any Diagonal I have ever seen. Its' tech spec are great, at the end of my 130mm refractor, the thing just looks bloody inspirational, begging to be turned towards a dark sky.
Including a Rotolock, they represent great value.

I have an ' earlier ' WO ' QUARTZ ' 2'' Diagonal, classic looks and excellent .

Not sure you could call it Steampunk? I mean, there's no cogs, brass fittings, valves or rivets.

Give Mental4Astro a bell if you want to truly punk your diagonal.
