And all that for a paltry $11,000+ USD. Heck I'll take one in black and one in red.Lets be realistic here...it's a watchmakers movements with a Leica Logo.
You are definitely not their target market imho.Well they look pretty interesting, made in Germany and there are some very interesting and in some cases, exceptional watch makers in Germany that are relatively unknown in the wider world. However, for my money, I would like something better than five atmospheres, not even safe under a hard shower, let alone a garden hose inadvertentley pointed at a wrist. Ten atmospheres would be a minimum for something as supposedly well thought out and manufactured these days. Also, they are a bit on the large size.
For my money, I still haven't seen anything to better a Seiko Grand Master watch.
That said, I'm extremely happy with my Lorus sports watch, made by Seiko, ten atmospheres. Cost me $55.00 brand new when first released, many many years ago.
Small neat and easily readable under various bad lighting.

Mick.
Are they square format, and do the come with a jam release toolIf they were labelled Hasselblad instead, I would get one for each arm.
Sorry Eric, I think at least half of their target market is female.They're aimed at the small penis types who buy BMW's and leave them on the driveway so everyone can see they have one.
They're aimed at the small penis types who buy Maserati's and leave them on the driveway so everyone can see they have one.
Wait -- 11 grand AND YOU HAVE TO WIND IT MANUALLY????
In the World of Watch Enthusiasts, the pecking order is:
3. Quartz (timed) watches. Extremely accurate to a fraction of a second per month; some are precisely accurate all year long if they receive time signals. However, these watches are boring and of no interest because they are just electronic circuits in simplest form and programmed microprocessors in their most complex form -- hence, they're designed by software monkeys and stamped out by the millions.
Yes, Leica give you an opportunity to fritter it away all at once.I figure that the average citizen of the USA fritters away a lot more money than that over the course of a lifetime with less to show for it than a nice wristwatch.
Now that's efficiency!Yes, Leica give you an opportunity to fritter it away all at once.
