Early M3s are revered for their over-engineering, featuring durable brass gears, a brilliantly clear viewfinder with high-quality optics, and a characteristically dense, smooth feel that sets the standard for mechanical cameras.

This M3 features a popular professional conversion from its original double-stroke to a more rapid single-stroke wind. Despite this update, it retains its cherished vintage character through original features like the glass film pressure plate, distinctive 'Buddha ear' strap lugs, and the spring-loaded ball bearing on the film door.
