Rare Leica M3 Black Paint in good condition. Sn 1109609. According to officially series number it is not an officially black painted . But according to the Black Paint oil ( when compare with my repainted M2 )n some camera experts, this is an original Leica black painted M3 either special order to Leica by customer or repainted by Leica ) . U can see the difference between my another black painted ( repainted M2) and the original black painted buddies ! Camera only . Price just over repaint little bit !

As stated in http://leicaphilia.com/category/black-paint-leica/,
“ back in the day, Leitz itself would paint your M2 or M3 black by request, giving you an “Original” Black Paint Leica even though the serial number of the camera didn’t place it in a run of official black models”.
