Nice to see the fakers taking a bit of pride in their work! This one is a much nicer job than the first one and is based on a camera that's closer to a Leica, though more outrageously decorated. Looks like a Zorki 1D under the bogus engravings.

Agree completely that it started life as a Zorki D (version PM1105 or later) but I am curious to know why there is a round-ended slot infilled with body-covering material on the top-plate approximately in the place where the slow-speed dial of a Leica III would be found...

Strange little detail!

I hope someone didn't trash a rare Zorki variant to create this...
