A long time ago, I tested a brand new Leica film camera for shutter accuracy.
Timing was bad (camera returned) and did not even come close to a used OM-4Ti.
I concluded most Leica photogs probably used around 1/60 speed, rarely a 1/1000
speed. It speaks to the OM mechanical accuracy, capable of a 1/2000 speed vs
Leica 1/1000. (My test setup would compare the start of frame to end of frame
timing.)
As to Lenses, that is another story. Maybe you should look for a Leica to
OM-3Ti adapter, unless you hanker for a RF. :-)
