I guess I’m just that dumb…link doesn’t take me to the watch and can’t find it on the website. Either I missed out or am so dumb I don’t deserve it anyway.

Sold out. Any plans to restock?
I think Maen is the only brand where I would buy every single one of their models. Just love their design language.
I'm with you. Have a ton of microbrands and I think Maen is a step above the rest in terms of design and quality. The Manhattan 37 looks like the most premium watch in my collection which includes others 4x the price.
Aren't they just knock-offs of popular watches? Seems easy to just copy something popular and it'll look good.
@@TeensierPython Take a look at the Manhattan 37. It has his own design language.
I love so much about this design and wish my budget allowed for it this year. Hopefully it won't be a limited edition forever.
Picked up my Manhattan 37 with the black dial a week ago. Incredible watch
Had a look. It's actually 2250€. That's a lot more than advertised here and quite expensive for what is basically just a Sellita powered copy of a famous watch. Maen is not the most fortunate name for a brand either. That being said, probably whatever design you come up with these days it will look like something that was made in the past so you might as well copy the most coveted ones. And since not many watch companies blatantly copy that watch, it's unique on the market, I guess, without being original. I'm quite a huge fan of yours and I hope for bigger and better things in the future.
Local taxes and VAT
I had a Maen watch and it arrived broken. I shipped it back, then they said that it was completely fine. They shipped it back and it was still broken. (Would stop ticking randomly) a watchmaker took it apart and said a screw in the movement was loose and bouncing around inside.
Maen’s customer service sucks.
It's a beautiful watch but I wish it came in a 40mm version.
At the moment they are specialised in 36 to 38 mm watches.
Those pushers are so long it's almost comical
About the same as on the Daytona ... but the stalks are too skinny. It does detract from the overall look of the thing.
I can't argue with the people who order it, but I'd rather save up my pennies (OK, dimes) for a pre-owned Speedmaster. You can find them for $3k-$4k if you hunt around.
‘Proportions’, as Andrew said 😊
This is a pre-series model. The final one will have shorter ones.
She's a beauty, for sure. This is one of the least cluttered chronograph dials I've ever seen.
I do like this watch. I’m happy for the people who managed to get a Daytona before the explosion.
I’m not willing to pay that price now, so it’s looks like Omega Speedmaster, Mean or Baltic. One of theses watches will end up on my wrist. Thanks Andrew. More Tom please 😊
Back when my dad was in West Point in the 70's there was a loooong waiting list for the Daytona due to the amount of cadets wanting one, so he purchased a Speedy which was readily available for around $500 as he needed a chrono, long story short he's still kicking himself for not getting on the list as some of his buddies got them 2+ weeks after ordering because a lot of people cancelled, the price was $999 and the full gold was around $2,500 (to be fair a Ferrari Dino was $12K which he also passed and purchased a Trans Am for $5.5K instead, Italian car part availability in our country was ZERO so it would've been a nightmare to maintain).
I love the brown dial that flops to black, finally something different that's classic
Beautiful. But you lost me at 38mm. (42mm please)
Which is good as I really need to stop buying watches right now!
It looks really smart, but, are those markers lined up with the chapter ring. I’m not sure they are.
Great size, movement…..& design Andrew! Good work!
First of all, congrats on your next achievement! This is a good looking watch overall. However, it doesn't speak to me. It's a little bit of everything - Tag Heuer lugs shape, Omega Speedmasterish hands, a bit of Tudor on the bezel, a hint of Rolex Daytona on the dial and the steel bracelet reminds me of ... well, you know it. It's all finished by a Chinese style brand name (it's not that Chinese can't do quality things) that makes it even harder to justify the price. The build quality, I don't know, I don't own one so can't assess.
Still, I hope it'll find its buyer.
What's with the 7 miles long pushers??
Perhaps this is just me, but I have been contemplating pre-ordering the Skymaster for a while, going back and forth, but have decided against it because of the straps that they offer with the watch. Both their Jubilee and 5 link design simply clash with the body and lug design. I can't fully put my finger on why though.
Of course, the band can be swapped after the fact, but considering the price, I'd have prefered maybe one more metal strap design that is more fitting than the existing options. Will wait and see whether they address this in a future drop or whether I'll be able to get a good (pre-owned) offer on one.
Sky master 💀💀 Do you mean sky dweller or yacht master
@@GODOFLIQUOR The watch this video is about...
I think you'll have to wait for a long time before you'll get one at a cheaper price on the second hand market.
Stunning Andrew, congrats on an amazing watch design. Love it!
Ohhh .. super excited. I have a Maen Manhattan (which I somehow stumbled upon outside of your channel) which I love. I now really want to add this Skymaster to my collection.
Ooooooo Andrew, that dial is so very very nice. Very nice indeed.
I dig it! Need to see more info about the watch, but Maen has a good reputation for doing an admirable job. I like the brown. Reminds me of Steve McQueen’s custom Mini.
Nice watch.. but seems expensive and the brand name and logo is a bit aliexpress. And the seconds hand looks cheap.
L opinion
Not Ali's but built in China by European disigners.
Yes, the logo and the space around it looks a bit dull and cheap. Besides of that the watch looks amazing and the finishing looks perfect
@@jamesblonde2271Wrong. It's Swiss assembled with a Sellita movement. It's said in the video. Get your facts straight.
No way I'm hell I would pay close to €2000 for a maen
On a distresses brown leather strap, this will look better than the actual Rolex… finish/quality is not far off either, considering the price.
Love the dial of the maen, love the jubilee, love the movement. But its solidly in oris and longines price bracket
Great job on the watch Andrew looks lovely and great to see you genuinely buzzing to see your vision come to life!
it says €2250 pre order tho
You did all that and then and at the end don’t give us a coupon code 🤔
I've just received my Brooklyn 36 silver/champagne dial.....Incroyable...stunning! This watch I'm sure is totally bad arse!!! Looks great!
The "truly humbled and blessed" at the end made me spray beer on my tablet. IYKYK.
Nice! Ordering web page is confusing: It shows the jubilee bracelet as a no-cost option, and also as a €99.20 upgrade.
The fact I don't like chronographs is saving my wallet, but Maen do make incredible watches and I will own one soon.
I wanted to buy Maen back in 2021 but after reading a lot of negative reviews from people that got it I backed up. Dont know how quaily is now days but that first and second batch where super bad. Their costumer support was also bad.
Good looking watch. The dial color made me think of dark copper.
Will there be a second round of them made since they are sold out?
That tropical Maen is from your hand? Congratulations. Cracking version, it is supremely tastefully done.
Waiting for San Martin's special edition.
Just spot on. Hope they still make them next year. Over my budget this year with the purchase of a Tudor heritage. This high up on my wishlist. 🤤🤤
The subdial indicators are I think supposed to look like pistons.
Be nice to see one in person at Windup NYC event🤞🏻
Just ordered mine.for those complaining about the price if this said Tudor on the dial for the same quality you all would happily pay double and say shut up and take my money
Yes
You've nailed it Andrew! Now we only need Russel's (AKA MAD WATCH COLLECTOR) wife to approve it! 'Cause if she won't its back to a drawing board again and you know it! But in all seriousness, it is a beautiful timepiece. Congratulations!
You clearly never had any actual high end watches, or this garbage brand lmao
Just watched someone buy the very last one right out of my shopping cart. R.I.P.
Fantastic watch. I dig steel bezel. Please, design Hudson MK5 with MAEN. And I hope they design Datejust watch.
Great Video and really nice watch ❤. These will sell out quick! They are reasonably priced
I feel blessed to have seen such an accomplishment. I mean, you got to have something special to achieve a goal like this and I do believe that deep down somewhere, you were quite sure it would happen some day.
I am only one of the others that found a good place where to hear nice stories about horology and see some watches in really high detail. You were and are part of my path to learn new skills by becoming an hobbyist watchmaker, on my way to make my own watches just for myself. So I thank you, along with other few channels, for making me a wannabe watchmaker. This watch is just the cherry on the cake in your incredible journey and I wish you it will be just a starting point, with more collaborations and more watches in the future.
Per aspera ad astra.
Can we have the lug to lug measurement please? Thanks. 🙏
i just ordered one will send a pic when it arrives
I thought you were making a minute repeater. Nice watch nonethless.
I was considering buying it until I heard it was 38mm
Very cool Andrew. If it were 42-44mm I’d make some room for it.
Beautiful Andrew! I preordered mine but am not sure when to expect delivery? I live in United States. Thanks kindly in advance!
I love Maen watches - I have their Hudson 38, so really cool to see you design this together! I'm not so sure about the handset choice however love all the other design features
Maen is utter trash, even 200 USD watches are better and I handled everything from 100 to 100k watches, this brand on the very bottom
Have you handled Baltic?
@@appleratpipeThis clashes a lot with all the people having a Maen in their collection. All who bought them are very satisfied and surprised how they look better than more expensive watches. All the experts are on the same boat of bang for bucks. Is it possible you are just a troll? Or a hater?
Really cool watch! Congratulations ❤
€1800!? No chance
Congrats Andrew! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Love it! But when I click on the link the watch is € 2.250,- not € 1.800,-
I like your creation. Well done and thank you.
Aye $3300 CAD seems ok but can't pull trigger. The VAT sucks, and then there is shipping then import and duties on top.
Well priced.
And hand wound.
Thank you.
Congratulations. It looks great and original.
Brilliant. It's a stunner, and you couldn't find a better partner for its execution than Maen. Well done, Andrew.
Is there chunks of glue on the Daytona ?.
I love it and I am on their mailing list and when I received the email I was all over it. Congratulations!! 👍🏼👍🏼🙌🏼
Maen Watchfinder special addition just arrived - love it. Please pass on my thanks to Andrew. No. 58 out of 80
looks very nice, contemplating...
Congratulations! It's a beautiful piece.
Brilliant design, love all their watchrs, but a bit sad I wont buy any since 38 mm case size is way too small for me.
Redesign that logo-name,cut the price down to £900.
Thats a really nice watch. Well designed!
Good thing you dont sell fridges. You would have titled it: "forget about ROLEX, buy this bargain fridge"
Collab watch which means both parties gotta get their profit.
I sadly don't have the money for it but it's a lovley watch and Maen does some great watches
Nice...I think Baltic also has paul newmanish design too for slightly cheaper...their tricompax series 👍
it's 2k+ and 6months + production time... and not cosc certified sad. Hard Pass.
missing micro adjustment in the clasps
I would like to see the dial in reality, though the angled shots did convey a fair idea. Good on you Andrew, for having a go. They will sell out for sure.
Gorgeous absolutely stunning watch. Giving us the Daytona at an affordable price and doesn’t skip in the quality department. Also YES the pushers are long and they look great.
Bro is this a modified 11650???
This watch looks terriffic! Congrats!
Excellent Watch and design is subtle(brings out the best of the watch from every angle). All the best to you and the team that executed this.
It's a beautiful watch too bad it's not at a more versatile size like
40mm
How is 40mm "versatile"? I think this will fit more wrists.
@@jpdemer5 40 mm fits more rest than a 38 mm does that's why it's also known as the perfect size.
40 mm fits on wrist better above 7 inches as well as below where is 38 mm in general does not
It's the fashion of the moment. Smaller sizes after the 42 frenzy of the past years. Keep up.
I just love these videos! brilliant. and the music in the background? it just...works. well done as usual andew. cheers from across the pond
Assuming thats a Singer dial its nice they're still going, of course Lip and others used the same dial in other Chronos, as you pointed out, it's a great looking watch tho, brave choice in colour, kinda like it.
The brown face reminds me of a Fossil watch. Should have just recreated the Paul Newman Daytona without the Rolex name, logo and with the Oyster bracelet. I would have bought one.
I stare at the MAEN logo trying to accept it, but I digress. It’s def a looker, congrats!
Your voice is always so wonderful, I’m really happy you’ve found a way to apply it vs a really lovely passion.
Congratulations on the colab.....that's a very nice looking watch, It's out of my price range but I do appreciate the styling. Well done.
Beautiful watch. Thanks for all the great content Andrew. You're a class act.
We need more sunburst dials. Especially darker colors are amazing.
Love the look of a sixties chronograph but can't afford it? No problem, the Chinese sell all the Seagull 1963's you will _ever_ need.
I never own a watch with chinese movement, are they reliable and how about the serviceability? Not hating, just curious
I like the look (not sure about the 13.4mm thickness though). I just don't give companies $2k up front for the promise of a watch in 8-9 months. It's one thing if this was a deposit but I don't want to wake up and read yet another microbrand went belly up.
Exactly
I'm sure they don't charge your card until (and unless) the watch ships.
@@jpdemer5 Yeah, they do. It's on the page.
Paul Newman did not put his name to barbecue sauce it was actually salad dressings
Newman's Own!
Theres an old saying, “Same sheet, different packet”
I eat his pizza 🍕 😅
Wrong. He made seemingly everything, all profits to charity. The list included barbecue sauce and dog treats. My dogs loved the later, but thankfully had no experience with the former.
Barbecue sauce and salad dressing are exactly the same recipe
I love Maen, but €2.5K (including taxes) for a microbrand watch that is not even COSC certified seems just a bit too much.
Love the watch but had to buy the black dial version somehow it just registered with me
Like your sunburst brown does for you
Everyone I know raves about the quality Maen produces
Now awaiting the delivery
Cheers
The 6 o clock dial ...does it count to 12 hours or is it just a subdial that follows the main hours and minutes?cheers.looks absolutely fantastic
Beautiful Andrew. Well done.
Incredible job! We’re all so proud of you!
I bought it!
Poor QC! The Manhattan37 I bought last month is too stiff to wind after 2 to 3 turns. Very disappointed!The case, by the way, looks gorgeous .
Stunning! Great job!
