This is a beautiful example of an original and very rare early production Model 1900 DWM Swiss Contract Luger with unrelieved frame. This is one of only 2,000 Model 1900 Swiss commercial Lugers manufactured with this specific pistol being a very early example with the very first "unrelieved type" frame with the early "wide checkered" safety lever and narrow trigger. These Lugers represent the very first commercial contract pistol sold by DWM and purchased by Switzerland. This Model 1900 Luger has all the early features such as: the dished toggles with toggle lock, a flat/recessed breech bolt, no stock lug, grip safety, early style, larger flat safety lever with coarse checkering, early narrow trigger, flat main spring and fast taper 4 3/4 inch barrel. These pistols also have the "Swiss Cross" in a sunburst on top of the chamber area with toggle marked "DWM". The left side of the barrel extension has the "Crown B and U" with the underside of the barrel having the "Crown/B, U and G" proofs along with the bore diameter and serial number. This example still retains the original early "V" notch rear sight and standard inverted "v" front sight that is fitted with a rare sheet metal front sight cover. The front of the frame and underside of the barrel have the full serial number (362) and the various small parts all are correctly numbered with the last two digits (62) of the serial number, to include the back sides of each grip panel. With a nickel plated magazine with wooden base.

Excellent with 99% of the original blue finish overall with just a hint of wear on the very front edges of the frame rails and side plate hump. The various smaller parts all retain 90% plus of their straw colors slightly fading on the edges of some parts. The grips are also in excellent condition with nice sharp distinct checkering showing just a couple of minor nicks or handling marks in a few areas. An outstanding example of a super rare early three digit Swiss contract Luger pistol with the highly desirable and very rare "unrelieved frame".
