Condition:  

• Exc++
• light signs of use; some light bright marks on the top plate though but nothing significant.
• base plate shows light scuffing, particularly around the tripod mount, which has marks from overtightening
• the viewfinder is very clean, providing a super-clear viewing experience
• This camera has just undergone a full CLA (Clean, Lubricate, and Adjust) by us, including a refurbishment of the shutter
• All controls now operate smoothly and precisely, making it a joy to use

what does it come with:

• This early Leica M3 features several unique features found only in the early production runs, including the distinctive "Buddha ears" strap lugs, a rare glass pressure plate, a stepped viewfinder bezel, and a ball bearing mechanism in the film door latch that provides a smooth, precise click when closing — a refined touch not found in later models.
