TeleVue TV-85

TeleVue TV-85 APO — Mint, Full Package

Selling my beloved TeleVue TV-85 — TeleVue's legendary 85mm f/7 APO doublet. A true lifetime telescope: compact, airline-portable, razor
sharp. Perfect for wide-field visual, travel and grab-and-go observing. Built like a tank in the USA.

Hard to part with — I bought it to keep for life. Only selling because I've bought a different telescope specifically for night-vision use.

Condition: just over a year old, mint optically and mechanically.
Always stored capped with covers on. One small cosmetic paint chip on the tube (close-up circled in the photos) — cosmetic only, no impact on performance. Otherwise immaculate.

What's included:
1. TeleVue TV-85 OTA with caps and original clamshell
2. 2" TeleVue Everbrite 90° star diagonal — top-of-the-line dielectric
3. 2" to 1.25" eyepiece adapter
4. 3" OTA mounting ring
5. TeleVue finder bracket
6. TeleVue balancer plate
7. TeleVue travel soft bag

Ready to mount and observe. Specs:
