Sounds like a Spotmatic to me!  

Actually, it is precisely the union of these three features and little
else which got me into spotmatics to start with.  I can use pretty
much any camera that has these features, and struggle with any
camera that doesn't.  My kodak retina 3c works fine for me, although 
the meter is dead and the interchangeable lenses are impossible to use
which means I carry it when, as somebody suggested, you want to put
a pancake on the MX and stick it in a pocket.

For practicality, I'd normally add 3 features to the 3 controls:

flash hot shot, depth-of-field preview, and meter. 
 
(Meter wouldn't have to be coupled, just there in an advisory capacity)

In other words, Spotmatic SP II.
