Voigtlander& Sohn Bessa T '101 years' (blue)

The Voigtländer Bessa T '101 Years' is a 35mm rangefinder camera body with a Leica M-compatible bayonet mount, issued as a limited commemorative edition marking 101 years of Voigtländer. The blue version is one of the special-finish variants of the Bessa T, a body that pairs a separate viewfinder system with a rangefinder window for use with external optical or electronic finders.

Auction data for this exact variant is thin: the single UK hammer result on file is £1,500 from June 2022, which sets the only documented saleroom reference point for what a blue '101 Years' Bessa T sells for. With just one wholesale data point, today's value is best treated as indicative rather than a settled market price, and the next clean example to surface at auction could move the figure in either direction. Condition of the blue finish, completeness of box and papers, and the presence of the matching commemorative accessories materially affect the price this limited edition is worth.
