Sky-Watcher SKYMAX Maksutov-Cassegrains are the ultimate
‘take-anywhere’ telescopes. They are also ideal if working
space is limited. Despite their small dimensions they pack
a powerful punch. Their High-Resolution, diffraction limited
optical systems are multi-coated to maximize contrast and
image sharpness. The Skymax Maksutovs come in apertures
of 90mm, 102mm and 127mm, and are available either complete
with equatorial mounts and tripods, or as tube assemblies
only, which can be mounted onto a standard photographic
tripod. Whether your requirement is for terrestrial or astronomical
use, these compact scopes are the perfect companion. The
tube material used on our Maksutov-Cassegain range is lightweight
but stong aluminium. |

”I have used a great number of telescopes; some are good, some mediocre and some bad. To me the Sky-Watcher range of instruments are very good indeed, and suited to amateurs of all kinds – and they are not priced out of the market! Excellent value.
Use them and enjoy them.“
Sir Patrick Moore CBE FR

SKY-WATCHER DELUXE MIRROR COATINGS
Most reflectors today usually have a coat of aluminium as
the mirror surface and then an overcoat of silicon monoxide
or silicon dioxide to protect it. Silicon dioxide produces
a much more durable coat than silicon monoxide but requires
specialized equipment to apply it and is therefore more
expensive. Protection is needed, because in most reflectors,
the mirror is open to the elements and deterioration of
the reflective layer reduces the resolution of the telescope.
ALL Sky-Watcher reflectors are Multi-Coated with Silicon
Dioxide as standard for Optimum Durability and Long Term
Performance. |
