Subject: [Leica] FS: Black M5

Hello friends,

I have an M5 for sale. It's a black one, 2 lugs, #1298XXX.

Cosmetic condition:

Paint is faded where you put your right thumb and middle finger. Some
brassing on top cover edges, where the advance lever rests, on the battery
cover and on the baseplate. Five little dings (1 mm) on the edge near the
frame counter. One tiny ding near the telemeter small window. Some paint
wear near the back door. Vulcanite presents 2 very small scratches (2 mm).
The baseplate lock lever tends to move a little bit under gravity effect.

Working condition:

Everything works perfectly. Telemeter is right on and so is the lightmeter.
Viewfinder is clear. The telemeter zone shows the usual small traces on the
edge, though. They are faint and small. Speeds are precise, self-timer
works, X synch too (did not test M synch). This body had a CLA recently.

It's a perfect user body.

Price $1190 plus shipping.
