This Monolux looks like a refugee from Etsy. It has a daytime "safety" option on the finder

Cripes sakes I'd have at least put the veneer seam underneath on the bottom. Sun filter is for centering the sun for viewing thru the main scope.

A Russian copy of a Isaac Newton. And it does surveillance too? You cannot go wrong here.

Looks like a nice little scope to me, Russian optics are good. I'd buy one if I had the money to blow on toys
And c'mon, the guy lives in -SIBERIA- is it really a surprise his Russian/English dictionary says 'surveillance' instead of 'observation'? "In Russia, sky watches _you_".

"Russian optics are good"
Granted, some are.
How do we know the seller did not mean "surveillance" Are you saying he meant "observation" That's quite a leap!

No offense but if you are trying to get the highest price for the owner don't you think you could supply a better picture or maybe even a couple of pictures?
