Adding some gold to its lineup of luxury watches, Leica continues its hand at modern watchmaking.
Renowned for engineering the best photography cameras and equipment, Leica has introduced a luxurious new addition to its timepiece collection, the Leica ZM 1 Gold Limited Edition. Limited to only 50 pieces, the timepiece is a celebration of Leica’s rich heritage and dedication to iconic design and exquisite watchmaking. The ZM 1 Gold Limited Edition is a remarkable fusion of two prestigious materials: 18k gold 4N and high-strength Grade 5 Titanium, known for its durability in the aero and automotive industries. The dual-metal case, expertly forged by esteemed artisans, pays homage to Leica’s first golden edition camera, the IA Luxus introduced in 1929.
The watch dial boasts a special color grade with a sunburst effect, achieved through a skilled brush technique that requires a steady hand. The indexes and hands are delicately galvanized, complementing the golden warmth of the case. Inside, the Leica Calibre LH-1001 movement, produced and assembled by hand at Lehmann Präzision in Germany, undergoes rigorous five-axis regulation tests. Completing this horological masterpiece is a strap made from alligator leather, naturally tanned in Italy and hand-stitched in Geneva. The strap’s refined grey-brown shade and durability perfectly complement the luxurious watch. An 18k gold 4N butterfly buckle adds an elegant finishing touch. Available exclusively through private appointments at select Leica stores worldwide, the Leica ZM 1 Gold Limited Edition comes with a retail price of $28,000.
