Are the framelines for the 50mm focal length more accurate on this camera than those found on current Leica Ms?

Will the short effective rangefinder base be too limiting when focusing wide open on Voigtlander lenses? The 50/1.5 is probably the one I'm concerned about most.

How would someone describe the build quality of this camera?

Thanking you in advance.
 
One last question: Are the 35mm framelines on the Besssas more easy to see for somebody with glasses than those found on current model Leica Ms w/ 0.72 viewfinder magnification?
 
I have several SP and one R2S. I would consider R2S is good as a modern camera but not that solid comparing to the old SP or S2. The base is a bit too short and would be difficult to focus accurately for tele. So good for Nikon RF WA lens, such as 25 to 35, with meter.
