New SW Evolux range

[Highburymark]

Notice the new SW Evolux scopes are on sale in Europe now - Altair UK has them listed, no prices yet. But Primalucelab has them - the 82ED is €1,027, so not cheap. F/6.5, nicer focuser than the Evostar or Equinox. ED doublet, though as reported before looks like SW is no longer specifying glass type. 62ED €580. 
Looks very nice. But isn’t it muscling in on Esprit territory?

Not specifying the glass types ?????

Oh, they won't like that on another forum that I can think of

But I guess it does provided the excuse for long threads making guesses !

Ok that makes more sense - €737 for the 82ED at Skypoint in Italy. Thought that first price sounded high.

Primalucelab price includes the Sesto Senso focuser which is why it is so high. They have had the Evolux listed for a while  - Altair also had it listed for a while last year (but with zero price and out of stock) so I am not sure there is any real difference in availability.
