Just a quick note to say that harrods are selling off SL stock at huge discounts . Something called an 007 set is 20k reduced from 35k for instance .

I don’t know if other dealers are doing the same but I noticed it this morning as I was there for work .

An "007 set" must refer to the Leica S, I would think. Leica Manchester have £4500 off the price of a new S 007 (down to £10,995). A set "worth" £35k must include a bag full of lenses too.

 

An SL on its own, is £5,000

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the appearance of "discount" and "Harrods" in the same sentence.

 It is hardly surprising that the S is discounted, given that the S3 is (more or less) announced:

Or it could be the James Bond Special Edition SL, intended for product placement in the next Bond movie, but made redundant when the Broccoli family bounced Danny Boyle's script.

Actually, it looks like both S3 and S007 are gong to live side-by-side https://www.leica-camera.cn/photography/leica-s-series, at least for now.

Yes, we've seen that before, the ME beside the M 240, the M240 beside the M10, etc. In fact, the iiig beside the M3. After a few months the secondary camera is quietly phased out.

Exactly Jaap, I’m happy the S system is alive and well. My S2-P is still working flawlessly, and it’s nice to see an upgrade path.

I know, it’s vulgar isn’t it.

"Leica" "discount" "Harrods", no less.

On the few occasions I've been to Harrods (with a camera, trying to be Dougie Wallace), vulgar is exactly the word I would associate with it.
