Leica I black nickel - 1930 - with chrome Elmar 3.5/5cm lens - working Viewfinder camera

PLEASE READ Because my cameras and lenses are collectors items to me and I never used them with a film, I mark the cameras as “not tested” and sell them as collectors item. However, functions such as shutter, rangefinder, light meter, mirror, etc. are checked for operation (not for accuracy) and lenses are judged by eye. From the description and test results can often be concluded whether the object could function properly, but I cannot give any guarantee on this. DESCRIPTION Black Nickel Leica I, produced in 1930. Body cosmetically and technically in good condition, working. Elmar lens in very used condition, but glass is clear with small surface scratches. Fikus lens hood and filter included. BODY Leica I black nickel, 1930, serial 57465 COSMETICS Paint: traces of use, nice patina, good condition Leather: good condition TECHNICAL Shutter: working, sounds good, but speeds not checked Film transport: cocks the shutter, transport not film tested View finder: clear LENS Elmar f3.5 5cm, 1936, serial 308039 COSMETICS Chrome: used condition TECHNICAL Glass: clear, small surface scratches Focussing: working Aperture: good condition, no oil Very nice collectable camera. look at the photos, because they are part of the description.
