Let's see your Leica M

At first glance, that hurt. But then you think that you are basically getting in return a new (for all intents) M3, and it'll be good for decades. It's really quite a testament to the old M's.

Exactly, name me anything (besides an M3) that the manufacturer will take back and make it "brand new".

I cant agree that the camera will be good for decades as the curtains were not exchanged.. And while changing curtains both shutter and rf are coming out so that they have to be adjusted again..

In 2062 my M3 will be still being used and your other camera won't. Of course I will not be here to prove it, unless.......
 
Rob--some beautiful cameras you have there!
And--some really nice quartersawn oak in that tabletop.
How old is the table?

Here's my latest 35-50-90 kit. I just bought the M7 last week. One camera, one lens indeed! :D

Paul, you have sharp eye. The table is relatively modern ... about 15 years old. But it's Stickley, so it's based on a hundred-year old design and methods ... quarter-sawn oak and all. Ditto on the chairs and sideboard. The original Stickley furniture costs more than my house.
 
Rob--ahhhh! Stickley! Great stuff!
Yep, the original stuff is not only hard to find but muy $$$$.
Greene and Greene also built some great stuff for their houses.
They sell Stickley here in the Atlanta area, but it is the modern furniture.
Nice looking table.
