Nigel,

                        >>Were they his lenses?<<

Relative to Ernst Hartmann cleaning lenses! No &
they were not mine either ! You have a point ;-)!

However, Jim's main point is still quite accurate;
Leica glass ( front element ) is well coated & can take
a lot of abuse. Filters do degrade apo performance!
