The original Rollei 35 cameras with the 35mm with a 40mm Tessar lens was introduced at Photkina in 1966. I have a more recent Rollei 35S with a 40mm f2.8 Sonnar. It has no battery cover and I can not remember if when I purchased it if the meter wasn't working. But, I would normally usage my Zone VI modified Soligor spot meter for metering so that was not a real issue. I purchased the camera from Krikor Maralian when he was still in business and providing Rollei repairs.
My S is chrome but below is the black version:
