※About rarity
Leica M3 Black Paint, shipped in November 1965. Serial number of 1.13 million. Late version of the M3 Single Stroke in black paint finish. Full original condition. The brass on the areas touched by fingers has naturally appeared, showing a moderate amount of use. Truly rugged atmosphere. Comes with body cap and original box. The box in used condition. Near the right-hand side of the advance knob, there are very small dents visible on the corners when facing the front. However, the paint condition of each part is good, with no noticeable scratches or dents. It gives an impression of having been carefully stored. The leather condition is still in good. Fully serived in 2024. Very slight balsom separation found on the rangefinder coupling area, yet no problem for focusing. All functions operate smoothly, and the viewfinder visibility is clear. This condition is quite rare to find in an M3 Black Paint.
