@danielmasci it does have a certain beauty, doesn't it? As in what the cause for the exposure counter no to move etc. that will depend on what you find as you work on your camera. There are oodles of gears and springs so you do want to be prepared for a very involved repair. The only thing concrete that we can off is the manual to work on it. Due to the way it has been scanned it is not searchable which means you have to read through the steps one-by-one. Rollei Magic Service Manual

I really do hope this will help you and that you get this camera back in to Action.
