Celestron Ambassador Executive 15-45x50 Brass Telescope

Description

Harkening back to the days when sailing ships ruled the waves, Celestron 's Ambassador Executive 15-45x50 Brass Telescope is designed with vintage nautical styling and modern glass and coatings to make it as elegant as it is useful. Built with a polished brass optical tube and mount, and a mahogany tripod, this telescope is an ideal accent to any room and a certain conversation piece, that is also extremely functional.

The telescope is equipped with a factory-installed 15-45x zoom eyepiece, anti-reflection fully coated optics, and an integrated erecting prism to allow its use for both celestial and terrestrial observations. A manual cradle-style alt-az mount is simple to use and makes finding and tracking objects easy. A helical focuser gives the scope a streamlined look by replacing focusing knobs and bulky focusing mechanisms with a simple twist collar located forward of the eyepiece. The beautiful mahogany tripod, featuring brass details and accessory tray, adjusts in height from 39-62" so just about anyone can use it standing or sitting.
