Charlie278 Posted August 18, 2011 Share #1 Â Posted August 18, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello everyone, I just purchase my X1 and love it. Well, except for the peeling skin problem. Â I purchased my X1 several months ago and had to send it back to Leica for peeling skin. Â while on the phone with a service rep. I mentioned to her (super nice by the way) to put the black X1 skin on it, it might stick better. Well of course it was just a joke. she said Leica doesn't really do that, but if I would really like the textured skin better she could have that done, I said yes. I think it looks a lot better than the sandpaper. I know it's not original anymore, but o'well, I like it. What do you guys/gals think?

J_Thompson Posted August 19, 2011 Share #2 Â Posted August 19, 2011 I like this better than the original covering so I think you made the right decision. BTW, welcome to th Forum. And good thing Leica doesn't clad any of their cameras with snake skin - the covering would be falling off twice a year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spylaw4 Posted August 19, 2011 Share #3 Â Posted August 19, 2011 Nice - IMO better than the original, but then I have a black one anyway. Â Maybe you'll start a trend! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecaton Posted August 20, 2011 Share #7 Â Posted August 20, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) very nice looking. replacing the red for a grey Leica dot would make it look even more "classic". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilfredo Posted August 27, 2011 Share #8 Â Posted August 27, 2011 That skin kicked the appearance of that camera up a few notches. Nice move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
