I’ve had the rewind knobs on my M3 and M2 break. Did you see me brag about it? No.
 

As I said, disassemble a few and you will see by yourself. 
 

It’s fun to follow and witness your Leica knowledge progress through the years, Huss. At your rate, I predict you will become an expert somewhere around 2035. 

Add this to your Leica knowledge book: the M3-2-MP-MA style rewind has a little fork inside that is prone to breaking much more frequently than the M6 rewind knob mechanism.

There is also a Shaft that, over time, will need attention. None of those problems are valid for the M6 rewind knob that you seem to hopelessly want to be a bad design.

Single occurrence doesn’t make it a valid evidence of it is a weaker design. You don’t know how serious the drop is. And you can’t say something is fragile once you see an individual case of carelessness. If the angled crank is so fragile then why it stands the feedback from market and repairmen starting from M4 to M7?

Why would I need to become an expert when you are always available to so sweetly provide input?
