unique opportunity to own the ultimate digital leica.

M9 TITANIUM Prototype(!)

besides the extreme rarity.500/500 were made in a set of M9 Titanium and instantly sold out, this is the even rarer Prototype version, serial number starts with P-01x (probably only two handful ever made)

historically highly interesting model

transition model between the old design generation M2-M9 and newer T/TL/SL modernist design

this was a turn in leica design philosphy.

highlights

lightest leica fullframe camera ever

last generation of leica with CCD Sensor, superb color reproduction and 3D pop only CCD sensor deliver, 

first leica with LED framelines / later introduced similarly to the m240 generation of cameras

metallic finger-loop/padded with nappa leather, great usability keeps the camera stable 

no need for a strap.

full titanium material scratch and mark resistant

sapphire glass display

While I mostly used this, instead of having in a shelf, the camera body is still in great condition.

The Titan M9 is significantly lighter than the normal M9.

certificate of refurbishment dated December 2018 by Leica , where it received Leica overhaul and the 

new future proof corrosion resistant sensor, so the sensor is brandnew, whilst the camera just turned 10.

unique, prototype m9T release in 2009 or 2010

NEW CORROSION FREE SENSOR, fitted in December 2018! and updated to full re-furb status at leica.

camera has mild usage marks, overall 9.7/10 condition (no shelfqueen) minor usage marks with the trouble free sensor, unique rarity,

one of the best lenses ever made for any system, paired with the this legendary camera, the AA double ASPHERICAL summilux 35, one of leica most unique, rare and highest performing lenses.

hightlights:

first DOUBLE-aspherical 35mm fov leica lens (only other lens prior to this was the mythic 50 1.2 noctilux)

handgound aspherical optical elements(less than 2000 ever made, as the scrap rate in production was too high, and leica moved

to a more automatised production process after the ASPHERICAL production, with slightly different formula and bigger barrel lately, the AA Aspherical is probably the highest

performing 35mm lens ever made.

10-aperture blades

bombproof build-quality,no wobble, no focus shift (unlike the later asph.) just superb!

easily the most compact apsherical leica lens ever (double Aspherical) from any brand.

correct hood for AA summilux, pouch and both caps

M9 T has illumiated led framelines.

historically very interesting camera, last with kodak CCD generation from leica,

first: LED illuminated framlines in a Leica, which got standard in the M240 model after that.

full-titanium-material parts, type housing with milled full titanium parts. with modern leatherette material, design hints out of this collaboration with W. Das Silva, have influence the T and SL lines desgings

camera looks nearmint, small dent on upper right plate, minor marks on the back right, as pictured

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID

Am 25.02.19 hat der Verkäufer die folgenden Angaben hinzugefügt:

as the bidding has started, and I wanted to add somer further details.

the sensor is free of dust an problem, as it's has just been replaced, the camera runs firmware 1.1216.

Happy to answer additional questions, one digit of the serial number is covered to avoid scams, or image theft.

this is a real sale, I have a excellent sales history of ebay, also of higher-end Leica in the past, 

you're bidding on this this exact camera as pictured, and no scam, if the camera won't sell on ebay, I will send it to the next westlicht auction in vienna.

the camera and lens set will be declared at full winnig bid customs value, no exceptions, the bidder and hence the receiver of the items  is responsible for the any import duty tax which might apply at import of the concerning country

great investment opportunity of this Rare Prototype Leica, which is priced realistically It would work great for a user looking for something special to own and use (i've not hesitated using this camera and making some great imagery with it), also great for a Museum or curators looking for the special item for a collection, or future investment opportunity with raising value potential.

included in the auction is the Camera the lens and the paperwork that can be seen on the pictures, no box or other lens is included.

also one battery and the charger. and only one finger-sleeve in leather, as it's a prototype this camera was never supposed to be a 'full box set' as the standard 500 produced, I estimate about 15-20 prototypes must have been made worldwide of this camera, the lens alone is extremely rare and has sold in the over 20k region in the past already.

Approved Paypal members only, no new registered ebayers, paypal or bank transfer for payment only, depending on which country you bid from. Leica enthusiasts welcome.

I used the anomymus-bidder function on bid option, as I saw it's newly available in switzerland, for a higher end item like this it makes sense in my opinion. buy with confidence, almost a decade on ebay now with 100% satisfaction from customers.

good luck with your bid.
