Best Leica Rangefinder Repairing Lab in Canada/US

[s.giannuzzi]

Hi all,
I'm actually on a trip in Canada/US and my M3 is dead!!!
Shutter doesn't works correctly so I need to fix and CLA this camera as soon as possible.
Could you advice what's the best (and fast!) rapairing lab in Canada / US?

Thank You very much!

Kindermann Canada in Ontario is an authorized Leica repair centre. Gerry is a wizard!

Gerry is a true gentleman and the best repair person in North America (IMHO). See http://kindermann.ca/ or call (905) 940-9262

Hi all,

Where exactly are you, in Canada or the US? That might make a big difference in where to take/send it. If time is of the essence you probably don't want to have to send it through customs.

i'm in Canada now, still the first of september.
Thank you

I've been really happy with the turn around time and service from Sherry at sherrykrauter.com

There is nobody like Don Goldberg. DAG has done wonderful work on several Leica bodies and lenses for me recently and all are flawless.

Ditto. Sherry has done beautiful work with my 1959 M3 and 1954 collapsable Summicron.

I second DAG. He made a M2 purr. Although your trip is time-sensitive, so email him and get his timeline on turnaround. Good luck and have a great time.

Another vote for DAG... every dollar well spent. I've since sent 3 bodies for major CLAs, and they all come back perfect, almost better than new. His turnaround is between 1-2 months so unless you're willing to wait he might not be for you.
