# Maen Manhattan 37 Review by A.I. WatchMetrics

## Watch Summary
The Maen Manhattan 37 is a compact 37mm vintage-inspired dress watch featuring a distinctive sector dial with applied indices and a small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock, powered by the reliable Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement with 38 hours of power reserve, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts seeking refined urban elegance in a versatile, everyday size.

## Overall Watch Rating: 6.6/10.0

**Dials & Design Metric (9.1/10.0)** - The meticulously crafted sector dial with dauphine hands and polished applied markers captures 1940s Manhattan style beautifully, on par with independent brands like Nomos Glashütte.
**Material Metric (9.0/10.0)** - Grade 316L stainless steel with double-domed AR-coated sapphire crystal and exhibition caseback delivers premium build quality comparable to mid-tier Swiss tool watches.
**Versatility Metric (8.3/10.0)** - At 37mm with 100m water resistance and quick-release straps, it transitions seamlessly from office formal to casual weekend wear, much like a modernized Cartier Tank.
**Functions Metric (7.5/10.0)** - Core timekeeping with hacking seconds and strong BGW9 lume provides solid daily utility, akin to reliable entry-level divers from Oris.
**Brand Metric (6.8/10.0)** - Swedish microbrand Maen offers enthusiast-grade quality and low-production appeal in the high-premium segment, similar to Christopher Ward.
**Movement Metric (6.5/10.0)** - The Sellita SW200-1 automatic is a proven workhorse with good accuracy and 26 jewels, performing like standard ETA 2824 clones in Tudor Black Bays.
**Rarity Metric (5.2/10.0)** - Limited microbrand production elevates it above mass-market pieces, though secondary market availability keeps it accessible compared to ultra-rare independents.
**History & Innovation Metric (4.7/10.0)** - Drawing from vintage aesthetics with modern execution, it shows solid niche design but lacks deep heritage, on par with newer microbrands like Baltic.
**Complications Metric (2.0/10.0)** - The small seconds subdial adds subtle charm but remains basic compared to multi-function pieces from Longines.

## Total Performance Score (TPS): 9.2

## WM Collector Grade: A

## Performance Insights: Excels in dials, materials, and versatility for standout aesthetics and wearability, while history and complications lag; exceptional value trading well below its implied price.

## TPS Interpretation: Excellent Value: The watch punches far above its weight in design and build, delivering near-luxury refinement at microbrand pricing.
