AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Leitz Leica II Chrome
This Leica II is from 1938 (serial number 275478) and has been honestly used by a photographer. All speeds sound right by ear. It shows signs of use and surface wear. No dents, deep scratches, or impact damage. The vulcanite on the body is worn and should be replaced with new covering. Vulcanite is missing in a few places. Flash contact via hot shoe. The rangefinder is correct. Glasses of the viewfinder and meter are intact. With a good-looking black 135mm/4.5 Hektor telephoto lens. It rotates smoothly. Coupled with the rangefinder. With a multifocal Leitz viewfinder from the same period. Includes rear lens cap and body cap. Note: no film take-up spool. With cable release. Everything from 1940.
