Complete and new limited special edition of the last 100 LEICA NOCTILUX-M 50 mm f/1 lenses in high quality lacquered wooden box, complete with all papers and accessories. Over 30 years after its market launch in 1976, the production of the high-performance lens LEICA NOCTILUX- M 50mm f/1 was discontinued in 2008. The last lenses were sold as an exclusive special edition. For the first time, a lens was supplied in a fine lacquered wooden box with dehumidifying function. It was made by the Elie Bleu Tabletier, which has a long tradition of excellent craftsmanship. With its team of 35 cabinet makers, Elie Bleu is a familiar name among lovers of valuable cigars and watches for the production of premium quality wooden cases and cabinets for stylish yet safe keeping of their treasures. As the world’s first serial production 35 mm lens featuring a speed of f/1 the Noctilux represents a milestone in the history of photography. The special edition also comprises a high-quality leather-bound book with gilt edging. This book tells the Leica story and features a thorough description of the art of lens design.
