Swarovski ATM 65 HD Spotting Scope recently acquired. Any value? (1 Viewer)

[Vixen_893]

Hello. Newbie here! My sister-in-law recently passed and she owned the scope mentioned above, with tripod. If I understand the serial number correctly (begins with U79) it's a 2009 scope. Sound right? It has hours and hours and hours of use. Probably more hours that I could ever imagine. Is there any value in in this "old" gal?

Your example is an ATM 65, rather than ATS 65 (the green focus ring and black lens hood identify), so it's one of the magnesium-bodied ones and would probably sell for more than the aluminium ones. They're also quite rare.

Thanks for that information. I have since found the boxes for the scope, eyepiece and tripod. I’ll confirm what I have with the newly found boxes!
