[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have now two M6 HM, numbered #2415946 and # 2423248 (my earlier posting '248x' was a typing error, sorry). These two numbers are about 7500 bodies apart. That could mean: 1/ These is the number range allotted to the series and not all numbers are already issued. 2/ All numbers are already produced. Given the production capacity that should mean about 6 months production. Quite unreasonable as a few months ago the existance of the HM has been corroborated. 3/ The batches are quite small and I have an earlier and a later batch number. Any way the problem now is that both numbers surface in the same week and could indicate a production span of 6 months or longer. I have official figures about the rangefinder. Baselength still 69,25mm. Exact magnification 0.853. Result 59.07 (rounded 59.1) Erwin
