Gold Konica Hexar
Commemorating Konica's 120th Anniversary! Production only 500 Cameras!
Konica's Gold Hexar is very stylishly done with a burnished gold finish, rather than the shiny gold finish used by most gold cameras. The packaging is first rate as well, with a special red velvet lined presentation walnut embossed case. The inside case is labeled "Konica's 120th Anniversary." Even the lens cap is gold. Translation: don't lose it!!!!!! Ever try to buy a gold lens cap??

Konica also made a 100th Anniversary T3. 1500 were made, with the numbers engraved on the baseplate and with a 100th Anniversary name plate on front. Alas, just chrome. I guess it was before they made it big in the copier market and could afford the gold cameras.
