## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for northern or southern hemisphere.
*by B***R on January 4, 2019*

This is a new engraving polar scope that is dual use for Northern or Southern hemispheres. It's actually more accurate then the older style because it has offsets for the years. I've attached a photo of the what the engraving looks like through my polar aligment app. And also a photo of the engraving itself. You can use a polar alignment app and put polaris on the exact spot on the clock that the app has it. Or set your date circle like the old style engraving then set polaris to the 6 o'clock spot once your ra is moved to the correct time. Essentially 6 o'clock becomes the spot of the old polaris engraving spot. With the 3 circles on the engraving, inner, middle, and outer plus the 3 lines in between them at the 12, 3, 6, 9 o'clock spots this gives you exact spots for the next 12 years or so. Also the clock has lines on the outside for hours and minutes. It's extremely accurate for polar alignment. Southern hemisphere user will have to use the octans constellation that's on it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice PA Scope
*by B***R on September 18, 2023*

This really helped get my mount aligned and tracking better.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ From what I see the astronomy brand sells high quality products for astronomy !!
*by B***B on July 15, 2020*

From what I see the astronomy brand sells high quality products for astronomy !!the product fits perfectly into the "skyview pro orion mount"the polar seeker is decolimated because it is used in different mounts and it will be very easy to collimate it with a small allen key. I recommend watching a tutorial before, if you have collimated a telescope before this will be a piece of cake.the product feels solid and durable and the reason I remove a star is because the small inner sheet that has the labeling was a little spotty minusculame and moved 0 a few degrees to the left.I tried to correct it and ended up staining and scratching the internal optics, now with more imperfections than I had thanks to my OCD. The scratches do not affect anything other than aesthetics, it only bothers me, so I will contact astronomy to find out if that piece is sold separately, after all, it is my fault! the internal optics is very delicate and I was not delicate enough cleaning.The important thing is that I have my polar search engine and now I can be totally accurate thanks to the astronomy polar search engine !! remember to be delicate when you cool your polar finder with the saddle this is only done once and remains practically for life.
