Hello

I plan to buy a Voigtlander Skopar 21 f/3.5 and Voigtlander 75 1.5 Nokton for my M10 monochrom...

How do you manage to get a frame in the viewfinder similar to the 21 or 75 mm ?   Do you choose a setting in the M10 and select a 21 or 75 Leica lens ?   Or do you trust M10 LCD panel for framing ?

Thanks a lot

Visoflex is the logical answer. Either the 020 version or the Visoflex 2.  The latter is also compatible with the M11. 
 

… or if you want to go vintage (not necessarily cheaper) https://store.leica-camera.com/at/en/leica-brightline-viewfinder-m-21-mm-black-lacquered for the 21 mm

The Voigtlander lenses (21 & 75) will bring up the same frame lines in the finder as equivalent FL Leica lenses. The frame lines are selected by the flange "ears" that have been standardized for decades. I think the only currently valid patent on the M mount relates to the 6-bit coding, which is not necessary for frameline selection, which is purely mechanical.
