Kowa TSN 823 Prominar Spotting scope.In excellent overall condition. Scope comes with an almost new TSE 21WE 21x Wide angle eyepiece for outstanding brightness and crisp imagery with the added bonus of the enormous eye glass for easy & tireless viewing.
The scope comes with the essential SKUA stay on cover with extendable hood for wet weather. The scope suffers from the same sticky paint issue as all other top end Kowas from this era but of course this isnt a problem as the scope resides inside the stay on cover. Indeed today was the first time the scope has been out of the cover since I bought it seven years ago.
The eyepiece end of the scope body has been professionally replaced (and scope regassed) with a more modern housing which Kowa brought out after acknowledging their stick paint issues. As such, this end is a nice solid green colour.
Scope comes with its original UK import box, SKUA carrying strap and protective case for the eyepiece. The scope and eyepiece all have lens caps to protect. The mounting screw on the base plate is in good condition.
Only selling as I have decided to down size to a smaller Kowa (but alongside each other it is clear to see that this 82mm 823 is optically vastly superior to the smaller Kowa. Viewing brightness on a gloomy day is outstanding through this scope.
