My first Leica was a IIIg I bought in 1969 at Brooks Camera in San Francisco 
(used). Had the pull-out 50mm lens. I no longer have it. Coming out of the 
weapons shipping hatch on USS PARCHE in Charleston I knocked it overboard 
into the harbor. Never seen again.

I bought an M6ttl in 2000 off e-bay, along with a 50mm lens and still have 
it.
