Bresser130/1000 Spica EQ3 Telescope

Retail: R8,700
About

The Bresser Spica 130/1000 EQ3 is a great serious beginner's scope with reasonable aperture mirror and a long focal length which allows the observation of many celestial targets. Thanks to the catadioptic system (integrated Barlow lens) the length of the tube is kept to a minimum, which aids transportation and storage. The BRESSER Spica comes on an equatorial mount with aluminium tripod, allowing accurate tracking of objects at high powers, using integrated gears and manual slow motion controls (the mount can also be motorised with the addition of a Right Ascension motor kit at a later date). All Newtonian Telescopes have a drawtube focuser on the side of their tube, this offers an adjustable viewing angle, which can be set to the user's liking by revolving the tube in the support rings - offering comfort while observing celestial bodies. Explore the planets within our solar system and discover the brighter deep sky objects.

That's a wrap!

We always try to make jokes and puns about the deals we're running, but they often run the risk of getting a little... dry. Yep, you probably caught that - we threw in the towel and did it anyway! Oops, we did it again!

Look, we can't help it, okay? Being lighthearted and cracking funnies is just in our makeup. It's in the very microfibres of our being! It's what sets us apart from the rest, it's what makes us so colourful, really.

Even if you struggle to wrap your head around our way of messaging, you should have no trouble wrapping yourself around our deal on these microfibre surf towels from Surf Time!
