A few months ago Don Goldberg did a complete rebuild of my SL.
This included re-silvering the prism block etc., so the optical
system in my SL is probably as good as new. That said, I took a look 
though an R9 at a Leica Day and nearly had my socks blown off. The R9
finder is as bright if not brighter than the one in the SL.
