problem with the viewfinder's window

[macaron]

Hi all,

I just brought a leica from an auction site.
It was belong to a press photographer.
I know that the camera was heavy used and it needs a CLA.
But what I worry is the window of the viewfinder.
The coating of an inside mirror wore out. Do you know if this problem is serious ?
Can it be cleaned or has to changed ?

is it the coating of a mirror or the inside of the window itself? both can be fixed, but the first is much more expensive than the second.

That looks like two pieces of glass are coming unglued. I try never to look that closely at anything that can break!
