The Bresser Telescope AC 60/700 AZ Arcturus is a classic entry-level refractor for anyone wanting an accessible introduction to astronomy and nature observation. With a 60 mm objective lens and a focal length of 700 mm, this telescope provides up to 120x magnification, revealing surprisingly detailed views of the Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars.


Want to start stargazing without complications? This 60/700 refractor telescope is perfect for beginners looking to explore the moon, planets, and nature. Thanks to its lightweight design and simple operation, this model is ideal for young users or vacation use.
