Hi guys, my first post here so please be gentle with me!

I've come into possession of a Regula Mastra V35 35mm camera from the late 50s. I've run a film through it (remains to be seen whether its taken any photos) and everything seems to be working fine apart from the exposure counter, which isn't changing with each exposure. It's one of those types where you set the counter at the number of exposures and it counts down.

Any ideas on how I might be able to go about fixing it myself? Or ideas how much it might cost to get repaired? Wondering whether its worth it if the camera still works fine and its probably worth peanuts anyway.

Thanks for any help!

Sorry for the blurry photos they're from my prehistoric cell phone.
