Yes. That means that is was completely rebuilt with parts that were still in stock at the factory at that time. It is therefore still in a relative good condition. The paint type is the same as on the black paint M4's and is therefore of a much better quality than the paint that was used on the black M2's and M3's.

Got a nice surprise today--my M7 griptac came in from Cameraleather after only a couple of days. Awesome! Also got my black soft release from Stephen, so the M7 is now rarin' to go (though it's already been going for a week). Replacing the covering was very, very easy, esp. compared to trying to get vulcanite off an old camera...a Zorki-1 once took me days, and this whole project took half an hour.

I'm semi-tempted to fill in the white M7 logo with black paint of some kind, since I prefer the minimalist look (the camera already had the black dot when I bought it from a fellow RFF'er), but probably I'll just leave it.

Lens is the Zeiss-Opton f/2 Sonnar with Amedeo Muscelli adapter.

The Griptac looks great. Do you need to remove the old skin from the camera before putting on the Griptac skin? Self-adhesive?
