I use my Pre-Asph Summilux wide open quite a bit.  If I do stop it down, it 
usually f2.0 or 4.0.  I find it performs better on my M8 than on my M6TTL.

Bonsoir mon ami Tarek, le catalan nordique!

I have no concerns to use the Summilux Pre Asph wide open, however  
wide open shows a loss of contrast and you should focus carefully, but  
I'm quite happy with this lens, at F2 is the same rendition than the  
Summicron 35 (IV), maybe even better, just yesterday I was looking a  
test I've made of both lens 6 years ago and the Summicron mades  
certain flare on the streets lights, the Summilux no. I've take a look  
to the EXIF and it indicates that the Angel was shot at F8, if you are  
interested I can show you some examples at 1.4, at this moment I  
remember this one at F 1.4
