Here's my minimal didactic example:

<http://stackoverflow.com/a/3072979/230513>

I'd argue that even Swing "Hello, word!" may be analyzed in terms of 
MVC. The notional greeting is modeled as a String, but the controller 
(EDT) notifies the view (JLabel) directly by invoking the label's 
paintComponent() method.

Among Swing components having a separable model, JButton & JComboBox are 
fairly accessible.
