rivi1969 Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share #22 Posted August 18, 2018 Pete and David, Last year I contact Leica to see the what I could do to have my camera engraved, they told me I had to ship it to Germany and the process could take almost a year at a cost of around 1000 Euros, I dropped the idea. Last month a designer friend of mine gave me a few Leica logo decals of different sizes as a gift so I decided to put the smaller 1" length on the camera, looks nice and seems it will last. In case you want I can ask her to print some more and I can USPS them to you. David, you have a new follower on Flickr. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted August 18, 2018 Share #23 Posted August 18, 2018 Ah thanks, rive, that explains it - and thanks for the generous offer but I won't put you to the trouble you of having it done because I feel sure I could arrange to have it done locally. I'm surprised that Leica's quoting nearly a year and €1,000 because when I enquired about having my M240 similarly engraved a few years ago they expected it to take around a fortnight and something like £100 or so. Perhaps the one elderly gentleman* who does the engraving has orders backed up. *I'm joking of course. Pete. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
