The Celestron Ambassador 80 AZ Brass Telescope is inspired by the British scopes of yesteryear, and makes for a functional and classical addition to any room with a view. Everything's brass but the glass-the finderscope, finderscope bracket, erect image diagonal, even the outside of the eyepiece. Finished with an attractive mahogany tripod, the Ambassador 80 AZ is easily operated and very comfortable to use from a stationary position. Accepts any 1.25" eyepiece.
