Mamiya 645 1000s Camera Body
Mamiya Metered Prism Viewfinder (With Original Soft Case)
Note - Metering on Prism doesn’t work
Original Mamiya Leather Strap

Shutter Speeds from 1/1000 - 8 Seconds, Bulb, perfect for every scenario, with the 1/1000 being unique to the 1000s, making it easier to get the most out of the system’s fast lenses
6 × 4.5cm format on 120 roll film, the most economical size for shooting Medium format, yielding 15 photos per roll, while being a huge step up from 35mm in image quality
Kit includes eye level viewfinder, allowing for use in a range of scenarios
Kit includes 80mm f/2.8 Lens, with a 35mm equivalent focal length of ~50mm, which combined with fast aperture, makes it a perfect all-round lens, with a particular strength in portraiture
1/60 Flash Sync Speed, faster than many medium format cameras of this era

Mirror Lock-up (MLU) feature, perfect for shooting long exposures on tripods to avoid any shake
Multi-exposure Lever, allowing for straightforward creation of multi-exposure shots
Overall Condition: This kit is in great condition overall - everything functions perfectly as it should, and everything is in really strong cosemtic condition (see photos). The lens, while it may look bad in the photos, only has slight stratches in the coating of the front element - this may very slightly affect microcontrast in the resulting images, though won’t have any effect on sharpness or the rendering of the lens. There is no haze, fungus, dust, etc in the lens. Both viewfinders are in great condition, though the metering inside the prism doesn’t work accurately, which is unfortunately the case with most of these due to age. There is nothing to effect the optics of the viewfinder, or focusing screen, too.

Canon 35mm f/2 ‘Japanese Summicron’ in Leica Thread Mount!
What’s Included:
Canon 35mm f/2 LTM Lens
Front & rear original metal Canon lens caps
Features:
35mm focal length, perfect for all genres of photography, especially street and landscape
f/2 - f/22 aperture range, fast enough for low light use & portraits, all the way through to landscape with foreground to background sharpness
Optics known for being full of character wide open, and exceptionally sharp when stopped down, hence its affectionate ‘Japanese Summicron’ nickname
Extremely compact & light design, weighing in at just 139g, and being much shorter than even modern Leica lenses, perfect for maintaining a small street photography setup, or even for making a tramping pack lighter for landscape photographers
Strong Japanese build quality, designed to directly compete with the Leica lenses of the time
Leica thread (a.k.a. LTM, L39) mount, allowing for use on all LTM cameras, easy, rangefinder coupled, adaptation to Leica M mount cameras, and compatibility with modern mirrorless cameras.
Overall Condition: The lens is in great condition overall. It’s recently received a CLA, so the glass is in completely perfect condition, as are the focusing & aperture mechanisms. Functionally, everything is as intended when it left that factory. Externally, there is a small amount of light wear on the paint job, though nothing immediately obvious at all. All inlay paint is perfect, too.

Rare Nicca 50mm f/2.8 Lens in Leica Thread Mount!
This is a lens manufactured by Nicca just prior to the company being acquired by Yashica. It was initially released to go along with the Nicca 33, as shown in the last photo, which we also have for sale (the lens will be discounted by $100 if purchased alongside the camera).
Features:
Versatile 50mm focal length, ideal for all styles of photography
Tessar 4-element optical formula, giving it a classic, ‘vintage’ rendering style, while maintaining sharpness
Strong Japanese build quality, designed to directly compete with the Leica lenses of the time
Leica thread (a.k.a. LTM, L39) mount, allowing for use on all LTM cameras, easy, rangefinder coupled, adaptation to Leica M mount cameras, and compatibility with modern mirrorless cameras.
Focus scale with markings for both standard and infrared photography, which is uncommon for most Leica-compatible lenses
Condition: Overall, this lens is in exceptionally good condition, especially given its age. Externally, it has a small amount of standard wear from use, as shown in photos. The glass itself is also in really good condition, aside from a very thin layer of ‘spider-web’ fungus on one of the front elements, though it would have very little to no effect on the image output of this lens, especially when used on film. We’ve ‘killed’ the fungus using UV light, too.

Omega 34mm 9 carat Gold wristwatch from 1927!
This is a classy example of a 20’s dress watch, made of solid 9ct gold. Notably, it’s engraved A.M.D 27-4-27 (i.e 27th of April, 1927). These watches are nearly impossible to find, especially in condition as good as this. The watch is keeping extremely accurate time given its age, and it’s just come back from a service via Five:45. Inside is a manual wind calibre, stamped 6299906. According to most sources (though finding exact information on these early calibres is extremely difficult), and from what we’ve observed, has a power reserve of around 40 hours.
In terms of design, the watch has a 34mm case size (excl. the crown), with a classic black & white dial, with a seconds subdial towards 6 o’clock, with second markers every 10 seconds. The dial itself is in great condition, with a slight patina which is inherent with a watch of this age, and has a very thin hairline crack ‘spidering’ out of the ‘2’ on the dial, which isn’t clear unless looked at closely. The hands are arguably what really give this watch its persona, with a delicate, classic dark blue design. The crystal is free of scratches (likely a replacement), and has a domed design, adding to the watch’s generally rounded profile.
Case Serial Number - 6525588 (indicates 1926-1927 manufacture)
Movement Serial Number - 6299906 (Indicates 1925-1927 manufacture)

Vintage Oebra Chronograph from the 1940s!
This is a great example of a Swiss chronograph from one of the many brands that fell victim to the quartz crisis beginning in the 1960’s. This one follows the classic bicopax chronograph design layout, with pushers at 2 and 4 o’clock, and a seconds & ‘minutes running’ subdials at 9 and 3 o’clock respectively. The tachymeter is indicated on the very outside of the dial, written in blue, capable of measuring times from 1000 - 60 miles or kilometres per hour. Further dial markings are hour-indicating Arabic numerals from 1-12, without 3 and 9. The hands themselves are a dark blue, with a filling of what was likely a luminous material in the hour and minute hands. Additionally, the dial is stamped ‘Oebra’ & ‘17 Jewels’ just under 12 o’clock, along with ‘ANTIMAGNETIC’ at 6 o’clock in red. The back is stamped ‘Stainless Steel back’, and ‘1305’, likely a serial number which is unfortunately not documented publicly today.
Specifications:
Case Size - 34mm (excl. crown & pushers, wears slightly larger)
Lug to lug - 40mm
Thickness - 9.5mm
Lug width - 18.5mm
Strap - Original leather with standard buckle
Condition: The overall condition of the watch is great, especially given its age. Overall, there’s a relatively light patina, from regular wear. The dial itself is in amazing condition, wearing through to the brass only a tiny bit on the very edge ar around 7-8 o’clock. The hands are in good condition too, though the luminescent material applied to the hour and minute hands no longer glows, which is expected for a watch of this age. The indicies are showing a little more wear tan the rest of the dial, mainly through light paint loss, as shown in photos. The case has only a few scratches which have worn through to the base metal, mainly on the left side of the case, and the crown & pushers have been worn on their right side to the point of any plating no longer being visible (again, expected for a used watch of this age). There is also light wear on the lugs. Please see photos for more details around the cosmetic condition of the watch. The movement and chronograph are operating perfectly, and the watch stays well within +- 30 seconds/day, suggesting it has been serviced at least once in its lifetime. The tactility of the watch is as it should be, nothing loose or stiff.

1950s 33mm Omega with a Classic Vintage Silver 3, 9, 12 Dial!
This is a really charming vintage dress watch from the 1950’s, boasting a light patina from wear over the decades. Coming in at 33mm, it’s got a perfect, low-key profile which easily slips under the cuff, while being large enough to maintain its deserved presence on the wrist.
Details:
33mm Case Diameter, not incl. crown (Wears slightly larger due to dial size in proportion to the case itself)
3, 9, 12 dial layout, with seconds subdial at 6 o’clock position
Primary hour and minute hands, with the seconds hand on the subdial
Includes a modern leather strap
Manual wind calibre, keeping time near-perfectly despite its age
Overall Condition: This watch is in great condition overall and has a great light patina to add to its vintage charm. Timekeeping-wise, we’ve noticed no issues at all, and it continues to remain accurate to about +- 20 seconds/day. The dial is in great condition too, with the only real blemish being some light marking, primarily towards the edge of the right-hand side, which is only noticeable at certain angles when looking closely. The crystal is in great condition, with only light scratching throughout, typical of unpolished watches of this age. The case itself is in really great condition, with no notable wear aside from what could be expected from light use. The strap is non-orignal, and appears to be very new, and is in great condition.
