Where to get a CLA done?

After I don't know how many trips to Mexico and its beaches I have a fair amount of visible sand in the body around the mount, I dread to think what I have that's invisible to my eyes.

 

It's a preventative measure so that I can put another 2lbs of sand in there for my next 5-10 visits.

Leica NJ seems to be the place to get it done. They won't share any of the software needed to DAG or the likes it seems. Great!!

 

 

:confused: He asked for places other than Leica. And, there are no software changes involved.

I decided to send Sherry Krauter an email....she answered within minutes.

 

She only does film, since the testing machine required to do digital cost $75-80,000.

 

Please ignore my prior misleading suggestions. Leica NJ seems the place to go. And, I agree, a few weeks is quite reasonable IMO.

You might want to verify the 3-4 week estimates from NJ. I have 2 lenses there since early December just for coding and they quoted my dealer that they'd be done the last week of Feb :mad: That's pretty pathetic in my book.

 

I also have a 28 'cron there for some other work since mid-December and haven't even got an estimate for that yet.

Hi, INRE Leica N.J. turnaround times. Since I bought my first M8 I have sent at least five items to Leica N.J.. In three cases the items went to Solms. In any event, Leica N.J. has never (some hyperbole, not in the past three years) returned my items in the time frame they set. On items they or Solms "fixed", the repairs/adjustments were fine. If you are in a hurry, wait awhile. Don't send your stuff unless you can afford the wait. ron

That's my concern. I can't afford the wait and it's not a full CLA I don't think. The electronics are fine. I would like it back sooner rather than later, Leica seem to suggest sooner but always end up later.
