Advertisement Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Hi lawman, Take a look here Lost/stolen Leica M240 with 35mm pre asph lux and 50mm pre asph Lux. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
bencoyote Posted January 5, 2017 Share #22 Posted January 5, 2017 The serial numbers for the lenses: 50mm pre-asph Summilux 3902385 35mm pre-asph Summilux 3395192 If those numbers turn up at a dealer, know that are are stolen. Where else can I list these serial number? I had previously registered my lenses and camera with the Leica Member's Area on their web site and then put a comment that they had been stolen. Then I mailed Leica and told them as much. They sent me a nice email saying that they would take note of the serial numbers and if they ever appeared at service they would notify me as the rightful owner. When I've bought used equipment most of the time when I try to register them on the member area, I discover that the previous owner has failed to unregister them and the web interface prevents me from registering them. The general procedure has been, that I email Leica a copy of my receipt from a reputable shop where I bought the used camera or lens and they unregister the previous owner and then I can register my ownership. I also tried to email all the local and big national shops camera shops which deal in used equipment so that they at least would be aware. Leica Store SF, Samy's Camera, KEH, Adorama, B&H, Popflash... I have a google doc spreadsheet with all my serial numbers, how much I paid for them, where I bought them, and how much the current retail is. This made it fairly easy to fill out the police report and make the claim with the insurance company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendriphile Posted January 8, 2017 Share #24 Posted January 8, 2017 Sorry for your loss. Interesting response about using a case rather than a bag. The ever-ready case may not always be instantly ready, but at least you won't put it down on the floor or up in an overhead bin in a plane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
