RE: [Leica] LTM servicing in UK

[Jem Kime <jem.kime@cwcom.net>]

Julian,
I've just rejoined the LUG and have also recently spoken with Peter 
Grisaffi at CRR, he has 3 of my cameras and informed me that his 
mountainous backlog is much larger than he would wish for. I would be 
prepared for a wait if I were you. Though I have to say that his first 
repairs for me were extremely prompt and certainly his work is exemplary.

Thanks Ted,

I got hold of CRR yesterday and they can now take my Ms. I've been emailing
them for ages and then it occurred to me to pick up the 'phone. Doh! Good
prices too - 135GBP for full service with an extra 35GBP for new winder
bits. He'll also adjust the lenshood locators on my 35summilux asph gratis!
