A piece of art-deco / Boho styling from 1966
These cameras were produced from the mid 50s until the late 60s. I’ve done some research on this particular one and the lens number and case number tie it to the year 1966.
I tend to buy cameras I like the look of, I just wish that I’d read into them a little deeper to find out the issues. This camera was so good looking when up against the boxy cameras of the 60s, it was a trailblazer in that the winder for the film was incorporated into the lens. A quick flick of the wrist on the inner lens ring and the film was advanced. Impressive….when it worked and didn’t jam!

This unit is in great cosmetic condition apart from a little age related tarnishing. It has some rattles, the lens needs cleaning and the view finder needs attention. The lens rings are stiff so a little lubrication may be required.
When cleaned I will run a film through it to give a test, I may even reskin the camera to really bring some attention to it.
Please keep an eye out for updates as I will be commencing work on this really smart little antique very soon. It’ll give me a break from working on pesky Sony Discman players 🤦♂️
Be happy, be wise. Stay safe

I actually had one of these in my collection. There was a cover for the front that screwed on the advance ring and had a cap that screwed on the small front. When removed the cover screwed on to the front of the lens and formed a rather large lens shade. As I recall the front ring at the base twisted to advance the film and cock the shutter. It was quite a complex design, and a little flimsy.

That’s correct Marc, no lens hood with this one. And very precise with the fragility of the unit. Especially trying to move the inner shutter speed ring.
