Imperator Penguinius Posted July 30, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 30, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) The rewind knob on my Leica M2 has sort of broken, in that the groove that is supposed to be inside an inward groove is so worn that it doesn't want to stick in it and it makes rewinding film quite difficult (I can sort of slowly do it, but it can't get the film out of the spool). Basically, I need a new one. Where can I find a replacement for it? The one I found is in USA, but unfortunately the seller is away and won't be back until the end of august, and having to deal with this issue for a month and a half to two months would be quite problematic. Is there a store that has replacement parts like that within the EU? Or anything along those lines. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madNbad Posted July 30, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 30, 2015 In the U.S., Don Goldberg (DAG Camera Parts) has a M2/3 rewind assembly listed on the camera parts page. There must be a repair shop somewhere in the EU offering parts. I'm sure you'll have more answers soon from members in Europe who have a favorite source. Good luck and hopefully you will locate a part shortly and welcome to the forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperator Penguinius Posted August 2, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted August 2, 2015 So I take it noone knows of a store in the EU then... oh well. In the U.S., Don Goldberg (DAG Camera Parts) has a M2/3 rewind assembly listed on the camera parts page. It appears I will end up ordering that one (I only need the knob, but it's always nice to have spares, in case something else within that mechanism breaks or something along those lines), because thankfully he ships outside the US as well. It will take a fair amount of time, but not nearly as much as the alternative. Thanks, mate, you are truly a lifesaver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
