Now Leica has taken its engineering excellence and applied it to the latest additions of its family: the Leica L1 and Leica L2 – two timepieces with a rather interesting crown mechanism.
The design of the Leica L1 and Leica L2 contains subtle references to signature features from Leica’s rich history. These include, for example, the delicate design of the watch hands and applied indices, the shape of the intricate stainless-steel case, the special knurling on the crowns, and the domed watch glass that recalls the front element of a camera lens.

Maintaining the ‘Made in Germany’ designation was extremely important to Leica, so the movement and most of the watches’ components were developed and produced in the Lehmann factory in Germany’s Black Forest region.

It’s a really special touch, that will certainly appeal to Leica fans as well as watch nerds.
In terms of pricing, these watches also follow the Leica tradition of being, well, expensive. The Leica L1 and the Leica L2 are available at select Leica stores, priced €9,500 for the Leica L1 and €13,500 for the Leica L2.
