Summary

  • MAEN and Horoverse release the Brooklyn 36 Mahjong Limited Edition, inspired by traditional Chinese Mahjong
  • Features include a Mahjong‑green dial, Chinese calendar characters and playful tile‑themed Easter eggs
  • Priced at around $1,041 USD, the watch launches globally on March 22

Stockholm-based independent watchmaker, MAEN, has once again joined forces with Horoverse – the Hong Kong/Macau‑based horology platform – to create a culturally resonant timepiece.

Introducing the Brooklyn 36 Mahjong Limited Edition, this collaboration reimagines the classic triple calendar watch through the lens of Mahjong. The reference is built on the foundation of MAEN’s 36mm Brooklyn case, featuring a “Mahjong Green” sunray-brushed dial that pays homage to the traditional gaming table.

The design is further elevated by recessed, silver-toned subdials and vibrant red and blue accents, evoking the hand-painted aesthetic of authentic Mahjong tiles. Calendar indications are displayed in Traditional Chinese characters, with playful Easter eggs such as the “1‑Bamboo Bird” appearing on the first of each month and the “Green Dragon” (or Fat) symbolizing wealth on the 8th. A green textile strap mimics the tactile feel of a Mahjong table, further reinforcing the theme.

Inside, the watch is powered by the Miyota 9122 automatic movement, offering a 40‑hour power reserve and triple calendar functionality. The solid caseback carries special engravings, while each watch is accompanied by a hand‑carved Mahjong tile crafted by a Hong Kong artisan, along with an illustrated poster detailing the history of Mahjong tiles.

Priced at €899 EUR (approx. $1,041 USD), the MAEN x Horoverse Brooklyn 36 Mahjong Limited Edition will be available globally as a time‑limited release on March 22, 2026, at 8 p.m. HKT/ 8 a.m. EDT, exclusively through MAEN’s website. This release follows the duo’s earlier Neon City collaboration, but here the focus shifts to a more classic triple calendar design infused with cultural storytelling.
