Leitz X1 'Jochen Rindt'

The Leitz X1 'Jochen Rindt' is a special-edition variant of the Leica X1 compact digital camera, finished to commemorate the Austrian Formula 1 driver Jochen Rindt. As a limited-edition collector's piece rather than a standard production run, its value is driven as much by edition status and presentation as by the underlying X1 specification.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the X1 'Jochen Rindt' have ranged from £360 to £800, with the two recorded sales giving a midpoint around £580. With so few examples reaching the saleroom, today's price for any individual camera is highly condition- and completeness-sensitive, and a cased, boxed example with full edition paperwork will sell for noticeably more than a body-only lot.
