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

The Voigtländer Bessa T '101 years' (olive) is a 35mm rangefinder body issued as a commemorative edition by Voigtländer. It was sold as a collector-oriented variant of the Bessa T, finished in olive and marketed to rangefinder users at the higher end of the Bessa range.

Auction data for this commemorative olive variant is extremely thin: the only UK saleroom record on file is a single hammer result of £600 in 2008, so a meaningful current price band cannot be drawn from one data point. As of today in 2026, sellers asking what a Bessa T '101 years' is worth should treat that figure as historical context rather than a live market quote, and condition, completeness of original packaging, and presentation case will heavily influence what it sells for.
