[Leica] HELP!!!! - M3 disaster! Advice sought

[Peter Dzwig]

Lluis, Jayanand,

thanks very much for that. I have just tried to contact him, with no

Strangely enough my wife and I are thinking of moving to a place about
30km from there. An added bonus, perhaps?

Peter

He has original Leitz ancient parts, and he can refurbished your camera with the original stuff, call him, you can mention my name if you want, now there is a while I’ve not talk with him, he remember me.
