Officials say the launch of the gold limited edition of Leica ZM 1 is a modern tribute to Leica's first golden camera, the Luxus version of Leica IA, which went on sale in 1929.

The ZM 1 Gold Limited Edition features a unique bimetal case carefully forged by famous craftsmen. The case is made of 18K rose gold (33.43g pure gold) with a horizontal brush finish, and the rest of the bezel is made of sturdy grade five titanium, an advanced material often used in the aviation and automotive industries.

The interior of the watch is equipped with a unique hand-assembled Leica Calibre LH-1001 movement with an innovative patented push-in crown that stops when pushed in and functions like a camera shutter. The strap is made of crocodile leather and comes from an American certification farm. The leather material in the first-class tannery in Italy is treated by natural tanning process and finally presents an elegant grayish brown hue.
