A very early Leica M2 button rewind with selftimer. These early M2s are quite desirable for their round button on the front instead of the little lever to unlock the film when rewinding. This particular example is from the 2nd batch every produced, it is a 1958 camera.

Some of the vulcanite is missing, but since it's so original, we decided to not replace it with modern leatherette.

A great user, which also comes with a quick load system installed.

The camera has been serviced, and is in perfect working order.
