This Leica IIIf (Silver, Red Dial, Self Timer), #766162, is in good condition with some handling wear. I rate it cosmetically an (8+). The camera is in proper working order; film advances properly, the viewfinder is clear, the shutter is accurate at all speeds, the self-timer functions, and the rangefinder is accurate, although it is a bit dim. This camera includes a body cap. Please refer to the photos for details.
