Leica releases the next generation of the ZM Watch range: ZM 12

Building on the foundation of the Leica ZM 11, the ZM 12 introduces a thoughtful evolution of the dual-layered dial, welcoming a new collective of Leica lovers with its smaller 39mm diameter size. With every second, it serves as a reminder to look at things from a new perspective. Welcome to the next generation ZM12 watch range.

Iconic design of the next generation ZM12 watch range

The next generation ZM 12 watch is a modern interpretation of iconic design, and strikes the perfect balance between form and function. ZM 12 collection comes in a smaller 39 mm case, crafted in either stainless steel or titanium. The dual-layered dial comes with a small seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock, adding symmetry to the overall aesthetic. All indices and hands add Super-Luminova for low light visibility.

The mechanical movement that powers the ZM12

The automatic Leica Calibre LA-3002 features a 28,800 beats/hour movement fitted with 38 jewels, engineered in collaboration with movement specialists Chronode. It is accurate to between -4/+6 seconds/day regulated in five positions and harnesses a 60-hour power reserve.

A look for every style

The next-generation Leica ZM 12 watch collection features four models, each with its own distinct style and character: ZM 12 Steel Blue, Orange, ZM 12 Steel Silver Grey, ZM 12 Steel Olive Black, and ZM 12 Titanium Chocolate Black.

Interchangeable straps

Interchangeable straps provide wearers with the flexibility to personalise their watch aesthetic, to suit individual style and occasion. Each strap is meticulously handcrafted in Leica’s artisanal workshop, blending modern technology with traditional craftsmanship. Two exceptional materials have been used to create the watch straps. 

The first is a premium technical textile that is durable and resilient, offering exceptional strength and longevity; in beige, the fabric features a unique, eye-catching pattern that adds a touch of sophistication to the wrist. 

The second is high-quality rubber crafted from a robust material, offering excellent durability and comfort. Its bright orange hue and distinctive inverted “Clou de Paris” pattern make it ideal for those looking to make a bold style statement.

The Leica ZM 12 Steel Silver Grey, ZM 12 Steel Olive Black and ZM 12 Titanium Chocolate Black will be available globally at Leica Stores, the Leica Online Store and authorised dealers starting from 27 February 2025. The Leica ZM 12 Steel Blue Orange will be available starting from April 2025. Prices in the United Kingdom start from £5,735, including tax.

  2. I absolutely love the timepiece in the third image. Stunning design! Unfortunately, I do not desire to sell my camera equipment to buy it. It is an absolute timeless design!
