【Reason for being "as is"】
The slow speeds function, and the governor operates without problems, but there is a slight catch at 1/4 second.
The bezel is fixed with adhesive on both sides.
Therefore, the price is set to be relatively affordable.

This Leica Ⅲc is an early specification model, and the stepped AR lever indicates it is a wartime model.

Almost everything has been disassembled, and each part (especially gears and sliding parts) has been buffed. The viscosity of the oil and the consistency of the grease have been changed depending on the part to adjust the feel of the operation, so even those who are new to Barnack Leicas can purchase with confidence.
All maintenance is performed by me, so I will respond immediately to any problems.
I also have Twitter (X) and Instagram, where I post photos of the maintenance.
Please take a look.
