Condition: Refurbished
Optically: Overall very good condition SPlan objectives like new DIC slider with slight delamination affecting only the polarizer (analyzer), not the DIC prism, and does not impact the image. The test on a laptop display shows that the polarizer darkens completely. A few superficial scratches on the condenser head with no impact on the image
Mechanically: Excellent condition - all adjustments move smoothly. The stand has been thoroughly overhauled, including new grease for the focusing mechanism and new racks for the stage to avoid cracking in the original parts over time.
Cosmetically: Very well-maintained, with minimal signs of use
