The Leitz M2-M is a motorised variant of the Leica M2 35mm rangefinder, factory-prepared to accept an external Leicavit-style motor drive for accelerated film advance. It was a low-production professional tool aimed at photojournalists who needed faster sequential shooting from the M-system rangefinder body.

With only one tracked UK saleroom result, pricing reference for the M2-M with motor is thin: a Christie's hammer of £2,760 in 1998 stands as the sole data point in our auction record, and today values for complete, working motorised M2 outfits sit well above standard M2 levels because so few were made. Buyers asking what an M2-M is worth in 2026 should treat that historical figure as a floor rather than a current guide, since clean motorised Leicas have appreciated substantially and rarely sells for less at auction-hammer level when offered with the matching motor.
