I was recently contacted by Vincent from The Netherlands....who acquired a Polarex Model 136E...a 5 inch Polarex on a field tripod. Both Unitron and Polarex were manufactured by Nihon Seiko in Japan. This is only the third field tripod mounted 5 inch Unitron/Polarex scopes I have located to date. Complete information on the scope is located on his excellent website: https://polarex.jouwweb.nl/.

Highly recommend you check it out!

Regards,
Dave

Oh man! What a great find! And great for the scope to be found!

A real beauty! Now I need to put my latop down, get up and go get a napkin to wipe the drool off my chin. :lol:

Thanks, Dave!

Just beautiful. Everytime I see one of these scopes it sends me back to my childhood when I seen them brand new and was an object of desire(still is!)
