Looks really nice and of high quality. I read that the strehl ratio of such a scope is greater than 0.95 which is really excellent. Too bad I don't have funds to buy this as I have spent and going to complete spending on my dream scope.

Arief, since you have been selling so much stuff on Singastro, maybe we should upgrade you to vendor status!

hi liu ming, sorry no cert but all M603 are made for over 95% strehl ratio, 1/7th to 1/8th wave (similar to the Deluxe version of MK67/66).
kayheem, i'm no vendor lah! selling this scope only b'cos i finally found a Mew 180 that fits my budget :-)
i'm currently in HK until sunday, those interested can view anytime next week (weekday/end).
