Seller: dscamera ✉️ (46,030) 100%, Location: North Hills, California, US, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 312441409656 Tower 45 Nicca 5 Lever Wind With Topcor S 5cm f/2 35mm Leica Rangefinder Copy . This is a Tower 45 (Made by Nicca and known as a Type 5)  35mm rangefinder camera. This camera dates to 1957 and is serial number 150261. It is marked Tower on the top plate and Japan on the baseplate. On the chassis it is marked NICCA. The curtains are in good supple condition and the shutter works at all speeds. The advance is smooth. The rangefinder is working and has excellent contrast. The body covering is intact and a take up spool is included. The lens is a Tokyo Kogaku Topcor S 5cm f/2. the diaphragm and focus are smooth. The focus is marked in feet. No fungus, haze or separation. There are a few surface scratches, but this will produce excellent images. There is some oil on the aperture blades, but it has no effect on a lens like this.  Free shipping in the USA. All other buyers pay actual shipping costs. I ship the day payment is made. Regards, Darryl The baseplate looks 9+. Very clean. The top plate has some nicks on the back of the top plate as shown in image no. 8. The top plate has smallish depression behind the front edge to the left of the serial number. If you remove the top plate I think you could get this flattened out. It is not bad. The lens has no dents and looks very good. The flash shoe is missing 2 small screws. This does not really affect anything. I will include a Toshiba 40.5mm L39 UV filter and a generic lens cap. This camera is not easy to find in this condition so do NOT miss out.  Originally this would have had a Nikkor 5cm f/2 lens which would earn it the Tower 45 designation. The Tower 45 is actually a Nicca Type 5 with a lever wind. Sears had the Nicca engineers use the type 5 with 1000 top speed and diopter adjustment as a base camera and added the lever wind. The back was changed to a horizontally hinged door, as seen on the Leica M3, with a built in flash calculator.  NON USA buyers are responsible for any custom fees.
