Leica watch
Saw this advert in Financial Times a few times recently and I've never seen any Leica watch featured on this site. When is JLC going to start manufacturing cameras!? Apologies for poor picture taken from magazine's page.
I like the red stitch highlight on the strap. I have copied the idea on a couple of my watches to pick up a dial or hand item for a bit of fun. Does anyone have one of these Leica's to comment?

What's not to like-a?
...seriously, it's been out for a while if I'm not mistaken. Not different than a Porsche watch or any of the collaborations like with Bugatti, etc........

I guess there was four or five models of Leica co branded watches in the past. This one looks the best but would be about number 58 on my list of watch buys for that price but not a bad effort.
Exactly.
It's very nice! Not the embarrassment I might have imagined it would be. Absolutely worthy of owning... by somebody. It's not about to shoulder its way to the top of my list.
The open worked bridges probably remind you a little of a Gronefeld
The power reserve indicator is at 8 o'clock. The white dot indicates that the watch is back to normal winding mode instead of the red dot which shows when the crown is pressed (Leica style) which results in the stop seconds function operating and the seco...
Thank you for that description. Cool complication with just the right touch of Leica
Yes the bridges for sure is what reminds me of Gronefeld. Have a great week
There are so many watches to buy before this one
IMHO This watch is a collection of elements from various designs and brands matched to some Leica "elements".
