Serial #:73086

Testing the waters if anyone on this forum would be interested in a near MINT condition Type 1. The only problem is the typical broken tooth on the plastic clearing lever. Other than that there is not a single slight scratch, smudge, or piece dirt on this machine. Message me an offer. If you want pictures, ask as well.

It comes with the black plastic cylinder case which is in good condition, not perfect but looks good.

Repairing a Curta is becoming increasingly difficult - spare parts and repair skills are becoming less and less ...

It does not need to be repaired in any way. It is in perfect mechanical/working order. Cosmetically beautiful as well. Clearing lever works great, the outside clip is just chipped off.

If it is in any way DAMAGED, it absolutely cannot be described as NEAR MINT, or anything like it. It reduces the value enormously.

I have to agree, it's a very misleading thread title.
