Cosmetics 9-/10
No dings dents or major marks
Some signs of faint use but no abuse.
Some brassing on the lugs but overall a very clean and faintly used set
NICE!


Mechanics 9.5+/10
Working perfectly in every respect
Camera functions, rangefinder, meter and all are working well
Leicavit and lens also
Focus is smooth and aperture clicks are crisp!

Optics 9.5+/10
-Glass is clean and clear.
Viewfinder the same.
Optically perfect!

A historic set and this one in particular is nice as it is a FULL ONE BOX SET so it was always kept together
If you can believe it, Leica had a hard time selling these at the time so they eventually separated the sets into individual items to be purchased separately.
Few of these COMPLETE ONE BOX SETS exist and to find one is very nice!

An all time classic set. A sure investment and a pleasure to have and enjoy!
