Re: ES 127 For Christmas Anyone?
That is a good price for a 5" achromat, I wonder if Bresser is clearing stock or discontinuing.

Quite a deal! Must be winding down the model or maybe just liquidating the inventory...

Re: ES 127 For Christmas Anyone?
OK!
Nicely done Bill!
Never mistake enthusiasm for overindulgence! Especially when a good deal is staring you in the face!
Let us know when it arrives. What mount will you be attaching it to?

Re: ES 127 For Christmas Anyone?
I only have one mount at this time and that's the Skywatcher Az/Gte...however, I've been putting money aside for a Skywatcher EQ6-R Pro. I have $1400 so far so it shouldn't be too long before I can get that.

That is a quality mount that should last you for many years whether you use it for visual observing,

Re: ES 127 For Christmas Anyone?
Well, the scope is supposed to arrive tomorrow and the mount is supposed to arrive Monday the 5th...Hopefully by 2025 (an optimistic prediction) when the skies clear for me, I'll have learned all about setting up the mount for imaging...
