Title LEICA LEITZ IIIG BLACK PAINT SWEDISH ARMY + MATCHING 50MM F2.8 ELMAR 3 CROWNS NO RESERVE AUCTION Brand Name LEICA Type M7 Serial Number 987992 Condition B- Description Offered on commission sale is a fully original Leica IIIG black paint with matching 50mm Elmar lens. Camera was made for the Swedish Army and both the lens and the camera are engraved with the triple crown insignia. In total 125 cameras were made by Leica for the Swedish Army. As said a fully original one. Not re-painted or whatsoever. As you can see from the pictures the paint looks worn on the edges but this is quite normal for black paint cameras of this age. Besides the paint wear the base plate shows 3 pin head marks and the top plate shows a impression above the large window. Probably the last can be (partly) removed but I'll leave this for the next owner as I like it this way. Technically the camera is in perfect working condition. The finder is bright and clear. Speeding times are accurate. Comes as said with a 50mm f2.8 Elmar which shows the triple crown insignia as well. Elements are not perfectly clean as some fungus is visible. I'm sure (part) of it can be cleaned but again also this is up to the next owner. As said fully original and maybe one of the rarest Leica cameras. Great change to add this into your collection. AS THIS IS A COMMISSION SALE I CAN ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENTS VIA BANK TRANSFER. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS PLEASE DO NOT BID. Tax 19% sales tax will be charged to bidders with a shipping address within the European Union. General Information Please note that due to different time zones I will not be able to reply any question asked in the last 3 hours of the auction. Shipping via UPS to major destinations in the world at cost or if preferred at priority mail. Payment via bank transfer only. If you have any questions please feel free to mail.
