You could also contact WW Umbach. He provides repair on Zeiss. He is the John 
H. for Zeiss. Although I am not sure what his limitations are. I have had 
Contaflex's repaired in the past. May be able to provide info.

Here is contact info:

W.W. Umbach. Z-V Service. P.O. Box 754 / 1410 Seafarer Drive. Oriental, North
