Leica ZM11 ๐Ÿ“ท โŒš

Saw this review for the Leica ZM11 3 hander date watch. And today I learned Leica started out as a watchmaking company before shifting its focus to cameras which most people better know them for.

For an integrated sports watch, I think its a classically handsome and reasonably original design, not too derivative of any existing popular integrated bracelet pieces. The only hangup for me is the proportions are a touch too large at 41mm diameter and 13+mm thickness which I think is a bit much for a simple 3 hander date. But this will probably wear well for those with meaty wrists, an appreciation for the brand and a relatively interesting alternative to the higher end Swiss, German and Japanese alternatives in the $10k+ and up price range.

It is very beautiful, surprise for me Leica manufacturing watches.

Extremely expensive like their cameras. Not for my pocket unfortunately.

I love this watch but the price is really high. Iโ€™d have to have it on my hand and tried it before even considering

To me at least, the fit and finish of the watch looks worth the money, but it's a lot of money for most people so one really needs to love it to spend that kind of caah

I agree and I love the German aesthetic and the little leica touches like the red button strap release!
