Rere Ur-Leica replica by Italian Alberico Arces, very well made and in good condition. With original box and papers. Alberico Arces was a precision mechanic and the boss of the local Italian Telecom State Company’s 'Telex repair and maintenance shop'. In this capacity, he headed a small team of highly specialised precision mechanics and had a wide range of fine-machining tools at his disposal. To keep his team busy, Arces had the idea to let them make UR-Leica replicas based on drawings he had found. The result was so good that he developed the 'business' with the enthusiastic help of his team. His 0-Series replicas existed nearly 20 years before the costly Leica ones. Next to the normal or brassy UR-Leica replicas, he made tubus and folding viewfinder versions of the 0-Series.
