I agree George.

 The first time I saw a Titanium M6 with matching Summilux, it was hanging
around the neck of a young guy in Hong Kong.

He didn't appear to be using the camera for photography, he also didn't
appear to be a collector.

He did have a really good-looking girl holding his hand and giving him all
of her attention.

People have reasons for buying Leica, and who is to say our motive is the
best?
