yes Roger, the Ia shown in the Wikipedia is identical externally
regarding the IIa (my camera)but the difference is that the IIa has
coupled rangefinder and then they needed to eliminate the 35mm WA lens
viewfinder, due to the camera design compactness, to fit the
rangefinder, anyway both have the three windows. The Ib is also
identical externally regarding the IIb with the film rapid advance
lever, but again the IIb has coupled rangefinder witout the viewfinder
for the 35mm lens.
My camera does not look so pristine like the Ia in the Wikipedia
photograph, however it still looks very good and it's in perfect
working order for every item, I only need to check the rangefinder
exactness, the viewfinders for 50 and 90 mm are very clear and bright.
