Broken lens hood for Summicron 28 ASPH

I have broken the Summicron 28 lens hood. Do you know the part number and if I can get a new one on online? Lens cap is fine.

 

Where I'm now there's no Leica dealer.

 

Thank you

Original hood:

Summicron-M 1:2/28mm ASPH Lens Hood - code# 12 451

 

However, might I suggest you get either the:

Summilux-M 1:1.4/35mm ASPH Lens Hood - code #12 589

Works perfectly with no vignetting and is much more compact and secure than the original. This was recommended to me on the Forum and I found one unused on eBay for ~$100AUD

 

or

 

blow a whole lot of money and treat yourself to the very sexy round scalloped black anodized metal:

Lens Hood for M 1.4/35mm ASPH. (11 874), M 1:2/28mm ASPH. (11 604), M 1:2.8/28mm (11 089) - code# 12 466

I found this new on Amazon at just under $400 (outrageous price but very nice)

 

You will find threads in the Forum with images of these options. Hunt around on eBay for a few days (I found them both within half an hour of starting to look) or order one through your local Leica dealer.

 

Good luck

Mark

ps: sorry, I didn't see your comment about being in a Leica-dealer-free-zone. You could also some of the on-line photographic suppliers: Popflash (excellent to deal with), B&H, Adorama, etc.

Thank you, Mark!

 

I have at home, in Paris, the Summilux-M 35mm ASPH Lens Hood (#12 589). I use sometimes with Summicron-M 28mm but the original lens hood fits better.

 

I will try to give a call to Solms to see if they can send me the original one to Spain.
