Installing leather on an OM-1 thru 2N: The edge of the leather is supposed
to go under the trim ring underneath the self timer handle.
You also have to be sure the little cover for the self timer adjustment
hole gets transferred over. Be careful removing old leather around the self
timer starting tab, as being too energetic can bend the tab up and/or
disengage it from the self timer.

and

| Hope that's helpful...
