Leica M7 Hermès edition is the second edition Leica following an Hermès edition of the Leica MP Rangefinder. The Leica M7 Hermès Edition is based on the Leica M7 which is Leica’s last film camera using traditional thirty five millimeter film. The camera is wrapped in supple Hermès leather in either Hermès signature orange color or etoupe green and comes with a matching case. Only two hundred of the Leica M7 Hermès editions will be made with one hundred in each color and will be available from Leica stores.
The strictly limited Leica M7 Edition Hermès comes in silver chrome with a choice of two striking calfskin leather finishes – orange and étoupe – supplied by Hermès. Just 100 of each colour will be made available, and each individual camera will have a special sequential serial number between 001/200 and 200/200.
To complement the design of the camera, the special Leica M7 Edition Hermès set includes a silver anodised Leica Summilux-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. wide-angle lens, a matching classic round lens hood in silver anodised metal – manufactured specifically for these models – and a Leicavit M rapid winder in silver chrome. A real leather carrying strap, handcrafted by Atelier Hermès to match the colour of each camera, provides the finishing touch. Each set is delivered in a linen-covered, silk-lined box.
Price : £8,550 (about $14,250).
