    Necessary labours 3.000 H
    **THERE IS A PART MISSING FOR THIS REPAIR;
    IT WILL DELAY THE COMPLETION FOR A
    COUPLE OF WEEKS.
    WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.**
    Error description
    Sensor cover glass, coating is seperatin
    adjust range finder
    clean, lubrication and adjustment
    leather covering 1 PCS
    printed circuit, adjusted 1 PCS
    
    I am afraid to ask how long it will take......
    Note that there was no offer of upgrade to a CMOS model......  ( not that I
    am interested in dropping a few thou on another Leica body.....)
