When I sent my SL off this Summer, it came back, and I checked the meter against my R4 and R7, with a new PX625 battery- all three 'meters' agreed dead on. Now- I don't know if that was because of any peculiarity in my meter or if Leica 'adjusted' it. You may not need an adaptor if you plan to send it in for CLA- they may adjust the meter. Anyone know for sure? - -->Olympic SL's. Then, today I found out that the meter isn't dead at all -- >it was just resting! Actually, what was dead was the battery.
