FrontlineAntiques Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Hi all This little beauty arrived yesterday as part of a very eclectic mixed collection i bought. I have nver had an EK2 before, so i am very chuffed with this! Maker marked to the ring as "93" which I think is Richard Simm und Sohne, Gablonz What do you guys think of it?

Danny70 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Dan, That's a nicely worn looking example - just how I like them. It has a typical of the maker 'wide' frame with a very nice patina. Congratulations on your first EK2.... may it be the first of many! Regards - Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrontlineAntiques Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 Thanks Danny To be honest, I had been considering giving it a clean up.... Was told it would respond well to a rub with alcohol. But I like the patination on the rim so will leave it well alone. Its got that ”Been there” look.

Brian Wolfe Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Dan, A very nice addition to your collection. I recall my first EK (I and II)it's a great feeling. I have to say that after adding several more to my collection I still get excited when I find a new one. If you decide to clean it up a bit plese post the results. Personally I would leave it as is but, as has been said many, many, times here on the GMIC, that's a personal preference. Regards Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
