Pentax K1000 - Wikipedia
The best camera I ever owned. A fully manual slice of heaven. I had it from about 1979 until the summer of 1986 when it got stolen in Seattle when the apartment I was living in got broken into. I still have the flash for it and the Pentax ME I got as a replacement (a mistake - the K1000 was far superior), my last film camera.

Me too, only my K1000 didn’t get stolen, it got wiped out by a shot of seawater from the spout at Depot Bay, Oregon.  I got a little too close, and it never really recovered.  Replaced mine with an ME too, which I used, less and less over time, up until I got my K100D a couple years ago. Always had a thing for Pentax.
