Subject: [Leica] FS: Very nice Leica CL

A very nice CL. It has some very small marks from careful use. On the 
bottom it has few more marks. Check the pictures. Overall however this 
camera looks pretty nice for its age. The good thing is that the vf is 
very clear and bright.
The camera is checked by Wil van Manen in the Netherlands. Everything 
was okay except the on/of mechanism under the advance lever has been 
overhauled. The light meter has been calibrated. After this calibration 
the battery check does not go to exactly the middle position. It goes a 
bit above. This is because the meter cell in the camera is a bit off 
because of it's age. After calibration of the cell the battery check is 
a bit off.
It comes with a good mercury battery. It has not been converted to 
modern battery's because it is better to use an adapter. An adapter will 
give you more consistent readings over the battery life. But then again 
the supplied mercury battery will last almost for ever.
All in all a very nice camera ready for years of good service. Comes 
with the body cap.
Pictures on request
Price is 350 euro's

I prefer to be paid by Paypal. I'll eat the fees. Shipping to be paid by 
the buyer.
