Almost. I have removed the center screw to reveal another "screw" underneath that is hollow and accepts the screw just removed. This hollow screw is actually a plug that moves up and down in the brass center and adjusts the slow speeds. Then you re-insert the center screw to fix the adjustment in place.

The chewed up ring just holds the skirt in place. I needed to remove the skirt to get at a screw that holds the body on the camera.

Needed to remove the body to get at the film advance knob and replace the little spring that keeps it from turning backwards.

Other than this slow speed assembly, the camera is a dead ringer for a Leica IIIa.
