Leitz II (D)
The Leitz II, also known as the Model D, is a 35mm rangefinder camera introduced by Ernst Leitz Wetzlar in 1932. It was the first Leica to incorporate a coupled rangefinder alongside the separate viewfinder window, and it uses the 39mm screw thread lens mount shared across the early Leica range. When new it sat at the mid-point of the Leitz line-up, below the later III series but above the non-rangefinder Standard and I models.
At recent UK auction, standard chrome examples of the Leitz II (D) typically sell for between £170 and £950 at hammer, with a median close to £480 across the sales on file — these are wholesale saleroom results before buyer's and seller's commission rather than retail asking prices. As of 2026, clean cosmetic condition and a working rangefinder remain the main drivers of value, while rarer variants such as Luxus, military-issue or early upgraded I(A) bodies can fetch several thousand pounds, with one Luxus-style example reaching £7,000 in a specialist Leitz sale. Dummy display bodies and plainer black repaints are worth less and tend to sit at the lower end of the range.

Black Leica II body with the serial number of a Leica I Mod.A with Anastigmat lens from 1925. In the early 1930th the Leica I A body has been exchanged to the modern Leica II, the early serial number (172) was engraved by Leitz on the new body. Most interesting is that the lens is still the original 5-elements Anastigmat lens in a chrome Elmar housing (front ring engraved Elmar). The authenticity of the Anastigmat lens is confirmed by Ottmar Michaely. This most uncommon camera with lens is in very fine and perfect working condition. Estimate: EUR 6,000 - EUR 6,500 |
