I'm looking to find a parts lens to replace the decoated and scratched front element on mine. It doesn't need to work at all as long as that element is clean and coated.
 
That’s a LOVELY lens. If it was a Leica lens, people would be all over it, calling it legendary and such. It has such a unique look.

good luck

Shhhhhhh! Don't draw attention to it until I buy a backup for mine. I don't want the price to go nuts like it did with the MC 35mm f/1.8.

I wish I could say I've experienced this lens first hand but mine is in such bad shape that I've only really used it for soft focus effects. Aside from the front element the focusing needs to be calibrated so that it will focus to infinity... which may be difficult. As it is it will go out to about sixty feet when the ring says infinity, but nay further
 
I have one but it has a bit of a fungus etching on the side of the front element. Let me know if you are interested and if so how much are you looking to pay
