The launch of the new Leica ZM 12 watch collection refines the essence of simplicity, staying true to Leica's design principles with a fresh take on minimalism. Building on the foundation of the ZM 11, the ZM 12 introduces a thoughtful evolution of the dual-layered dial, welcoming a new collective of Leica lovers with its smaller size. With every second, it serves as a reminder to look at things from a new perspective.

A modern interpretation of iconic design, the Leica ZM 12 collection strikes the perfect balance between form and function. Among the key distinctions between the ZM 11 and the ZM 12 collections is the smaller 39 mm case, crafted with stainless steel or titanium, depending on the model. The watches feature classic timekeeping functions with a small seconds sub dial at 6 o'clock, adding symmetry to the overall aesthetic. The dual-layered dial comes to life through an interplay of light and shadow, which creates depth, allowing the ZM 12 to captivate from various angles in an exploration of colour. Swiss Grade A Super-LumiNova illuminates the indices and hands, ensuring exceptional legibility even in challenging lighting conditions.

Engineered in close collaboration with the renowned Swiss movement specialists at Chronode, the exceptional automatic Leica Calibre LA-3002 is fitted with 38 jewels. The ZM 12 impresses with a timekeeping accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day and boasts a remarkable power reserve of approximately 60 hours. The movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour and is measured in five positions to ensure the highest precision at all times.

"Every addition to the ZM Watch Collection is an opportunity to showcase our philosophy of merging technical excellence with minimalist design," said Dr. Andreas Kaufmann, Chairman of the Supervisory Board at Leica Camera AG.

The Leica ZM 12 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 provide wearers with the flexibility to personalize their watch aesthetic, allowing them to express their individual style or transform their look to suit the occasion.

Over 150 years later, Leica has been synonymous with innovation, engineering excellence, and timeless design. The new Leica ZM 12 watch collection embodies these values, continuing a long-standing tradition of functional design, fine mechanical craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to exceptional quality, resulting in extremely reliable and iconic products.

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 authorized dealers starting February 27, 2025. The Leica ZM 12 Steel Blue Orange will be available starting April 2025. The retail price for the ZM 12 watch and strap starts at $6,800.00.
