DenverSteve Posted December 27, 2022 Share #2 Posted December 27, 2022 Of course, as I'm sure you know, that isn't a decal. It is engraved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsrishabh Posted December 27, 2022 Share #3 Posted December 27, 2022 That engraving only comes in the “P” models I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwimac Posted December 27, 2022 Share #4 Posted December 27, 2022 I imagine you could return the camera to Germany and pay them to engrave it? I believe that sort of thing is possible. They used to do an a la carte custom service anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakontil Posted December 27, 2022 Share #5 Posted December 27, 2022 Some leica stores with prominent service can do engraving in house but not sure if m11 is widely available except you have to send it to germany as i was told by leica singapore Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulyLL Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share #7 Posted December 27, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi all thanks for the replies, yes I'm aware the image shown is engraved. I was thinking of a simple solution that can provide the look without losing the camera for months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

raizans Posted December 27, 2022 Share #9 Posted December 27, 2022 I'd wait and trade in your M11 for the M11-P when it's eventually announced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenverSteve Posted December 27, 2022 Share #10 Posted December 27, 2022 It’s Leica. There’s rarely a simple solution. 😋 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Brown Posted December 27, 2022 Share #11 Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) A decal is only available if you make it yourself. Professionally scan the script and professionally print the text on a transparent foil with white inking. Cheap and easy solution.

andybarton Posted December 27, 2022 Share #12 Posted December 27, 2022 But don’t complain when it wears off after about two months use. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted December 27, 2022 Share #14 Posted December 27, 2022 It won't take months. You fix a date to send it in. It will be back in a few weeks at most. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Brown Posted December 27, 2022 Share #15 Posted December 27, 2022 I had all my engravings done locally, less than 10% of Leica cost, done in 30 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santos Posted January 13, 2023 Share #16 Posted January 13, 2023 Just sent my M11 for Engraving. If your Leica doesn't have any writing they do it. Couldn't do it on M10M Leitz or M10D. But as consolation got my M10D Leather Swapped! Waiting for shipping and will share some Photos. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome, yeah I reached out to Leica USA they said it will take 3/4 months to get it back and recommended that I ship it out in March. I just don't want to be without my M11 for that long.

earleygallery Posted January 13, 2023 Share #18 Posted January 13, 2023 There's bound to be another user who wants a blank top plate or has blacked out the white engraving - reach out and see if anyone wants to swap top plates! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Leica should figure out a way to fast track this easy , lucrative cosmetic upgrade. Engraving, custom leather colors and six bit coding shouldn't take more than two weeks.
