It seems like a good time to ask this. Jerry Smith, the Canadian Leica tech
says that M Leicas should be re-lubed and tuned up every 10 years or so. Some
of you R users have been using the Leica Rs for a long time. What's your take
on maintenance?
By the way, i have a 1974 Leica M4 Midland which I use pretty sparingly. It has
never been rebuilt or lubed and works perfectly. So, i don't know whether the
maintenance "schedule" is excessively conservative or not. Personally, I
wouldn't have them touched until something goes wrong or until I head off on a
trip where I can't tolerate any failure.
