     Sonke,
     
     please can you post to the LUG the serial numbers for chrome, black 
     and titanium M6's after which plastic components were used, &/or 
     design changes implemented, in the frame counter.
     
     My (I just got rid of it) titanium M6 immediately had this problem 
     from new (I had it fixed at Leica USA, but it took 6 weeks!) I would 
     like to know which of my other 3 (all recent models) have it, and how 
     I arrange for the flaw, if any of them have it, will be expediently 
     corrected at no charge.  
     
     
Please reply to all addresses on this message.

thank you

Alistair

Thanks for the opinions. The problem I have is:
1. my insurance money is co-payable to a particular store; and
2. living on Vancouver Island, Canada, not a lot of Leica stuff shows up on 
the open market in the first place.
     
Anyway the opportunity is there between an M4-2 and and M6. It sounds to me 
that the best thing might be to go for the M6 if it's at least a couple of 
years old (say, pre-1995). Can anyone tell me if that "vintage" of M6 would 
avoid the plastic counter problem?
     
Thanks again.
