How we checked

The Leica manufacturer technical-specification page confirms this is the APO-Televid 82 (dedicated 82 mm column, order no. 40 150/40 154) and supplies the verbatim figures used: "Front lens diameter 82 mm", "Close distance approx. 12.8 ft / 3.9 m", "Watertightness to a depth of 16.5 ft / 5 m", "Housing Die-cast magnesium, nitrogen-filled", "Dimensions (W x H x D) 12.79 x 4.17 x 3.98 in / 325 x 106 x 101 mm" (325 mm barrel = 12.79 in length) and "Weight 54.9 oz / 1550 g"; field of view and eye relief were only shown as "see eyepiece chart" with no numbers, so both are left blank. The Leica Camera USA official store confirms the same model as the "APO-Televid 82 Kit with Vario-eyepiece 25-50X WW ASPH." (SKU 40124) and lists its US price verbatim at "$3,959.00" for the body-plus-25-50x-eyepiece kit. The fluorite objective glass and the 25-50x eyepiece range are further confirmed verbatim on the fetched High Point Scientific (SKU LEI-40121, "4-part fluoride lens objective") and Outdoorsmans ("sophisticated fluoride glass", "the 25-50x WW ASPH wide-angle eyepiece") retailer listings; the fetched pages document the angled (45 degrees) configuration, so viewing angle is recorded as angled.
