Not unlike large swathes of their product line, the watches are ridiculously overpriced for what they offer. There are brands, like Montblanc, for example, whose brand expansion into watches has been a success - their watches offer far more value for their price than their pens do - this was achieved by taking over a storied and respected Swiss manufacturer, Minerva. Leica have just extended these overpriced fripperies by subcontracting (to Lehmann Pr?zision), targeting the same nouveau riche wannabe purchasers that Rolex does - but that is frighteningly formidable competition. I doubt they sell too many - IMHO, only the clueless will buy Leica watches at US$14k, when they can buy an IWC, Grand Seiko, JLC Reverso or Cartier Tank for half the price - and even a Rolex (!) for less!
