A black paint M3 in beautiful, unrestored condition, and only minimal wear around the edges, with typical small bubbles appearing all around the black-painted elements, from an official batch of 250 units issued in 1960 (serial numbers 993501-993750), with matching black paint rigid Summicron 2/50mm no.1836429 (also showing small bubbles in black paint finish, incl. black paint lens cap, ITDOO hood), and leather case, definitely one of the most beautiful black paint Leicas we have seen
