Leica IIf Spare Parts

[angeloks]

Hi,

Sadly, someone dropped my poor Leica IIf, but it felt on the right knob (the one with the iso dial). The little brass cylinder is bended inward, cracked and some of it just broke away.

Now, it doesn't look to complex to fix, but I obviously don't have any spare parts. Anyone knows where I could find one ? And btw the way, how to you unmount this dial ? I see a little hole, but I can't find the screw... I could start by straightening it a bit.

Thanks,
Julien

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for ! And, anyone knows how to replace the knob ? I've been looking at it for some time now, and I just don't see how I can remove it...

the 15th to 17th part or page of this covers wind knob removal on the IIIf/IIf.

Thanks ! I managed to remove it with the instruction. The knob was bent and was creating friction. Anyway, does anyone knows if a plain knob like on the IIIc would fit on the IIf ? Or what type of tread it is ?

you can use a plain knob from a IIIc.
