I looked at specs on many cheap 70s rangefinders on the Cameraquest site

You need to go a bit further back - mine's a Lynx 1000 and is manual only.
There's a match-needle metering system, driven by a selenium cell (no
battery, hence no battery hassles though I still use a handheld meter).
The "1000" is for the max shutter speed - unusually high for a leaf shutter.
Lens is a 45mm f/1.8, and lowest timed shutter speed is 1s.
