Nikon RF cameras employ a close relative of the Contax BM mount.  They did,
as well, make their lenses in Leica TM.  These will work with any Leica TM
camera, will focus accurately, and, of course, will bring up the frame line
of the adapter of your choice when you use one to fit the camera to a Leica M!
