Bolex is still around:

So is Singer

On the other hand, the Parker 51 is sadly departed, along with
Stromberg-Carlson's acoustic labrynth radio sets.

If the Rolex, Patek-Philippe, Rolls-Royce, Harley-Davidson, Smith  & Wesson 
and who knows how many other world-class names were to  disappear at
midnight, 
along with the Stromberg-Carlsons, Duesenbergs, Parker  51s, Bolexes,
Singers, 
Underwoods and who knows how many other household names,  every one would 
still a big deal to knowledgeable consumers around the  world and so it will
be 
the Leica M. Period. End of discussion. --bob  cole
