For Sale: lots of Astronomical Equipment, another heritage of an active Amateur Astronomer (Belgium)


Sadly, another Belgian amateur-astronomer passed away a few months ago, and his heirs contacted us (Mira Public Observatory, Grimbergen) to find a new home for his -sometimes quite expensive- gear.

We’ve divided everything into categories: just click on one to view the list.

Please contact me by mail => “info” at “telescoopverhuur.be”.


152mm Intes alter M615, 203mm Intes Maksutov-Cassegrain f/6, 254mm Intes Micro f/15, TEC 140mm FL, 115mm TMB triplet (APM LZOS), 150mm Teleskop-Service triplet ED APO, 100mm Skywatcher Esprit f/5.5, 356mm Celestron C14 Schmidt-Cassegrain, Televue Pronto,…

And more to be added…


Lots and lots of eyepieces… 🙂

Mostly Televue, but also high-end Celestrons, William Optics,…


Some very old mounts standing outside (for scrap?), but more important: some very valuable ones stood safely inside (Astrophysics 600 Servo, Astrophysics 1200 DA, Vixen Super Polaris DX, Vixen Great Polaris, Vixen Saturn, Skywatcher AZ EQ5, Skywacther EQ3, Lichtenknecker Optics 100b,…)


The guy really loved binocular viewing: he had several of them :-).

Televue, Baader Mark V, Teleskop-Service, and even one made by Lichtenknecker Optics here in Belgium!!


Some “simple” colour filters, but more interesting will be the classical Lumicon-ones (all of them double, to be used with the bino-viewers) and those from Baader.


Two beautiful Feather Touch focusers from Starlight Instruments, and a nice Crayford from Baader Planetarium.


A mixture of the usual “made in China” diagonals, erecting prisms, and a few very special ones!

  1. Goedenavond, zijn er van de oculairs toevallig ook TMB Monocentric bij. Deze zoek ik al enkele jaren om mijn collectie mee aan te vullen en zijn een perfecte match voor mijn Adtro-Physics refractor. Ik hoor het graag. Met vriendelijk groet, Jan Koet

    • Dag Jan,
      ik probeerde je te mailen – maar mijn bericht werd gebounced :-(.
      Maar in elk geval: géén TMB’s helaas.

      groeten,
      Philippe
