And today, it serves as a source of inspiration for the creation of a new watch, or to be precise, the hand-carved Mahjong tiles are used as a base for the latest collaboration between <a href=\"https:\/\/monochrome-watches.com\/category\/maen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Swedish watch microbrand Maen<\/a> and Hong Kong and Macau horology media platform Horoverse. Based on the brand\u2019s classic triple calendar watch, here\u2019s the new Maen x Horoverse Brooklyn 36 Mahjong Limited Edition.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-6.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302083 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-6.jpg\"  data-\/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302083\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A relatively young brand from Sweden with Dutch roots, Maen has made a name for itself with <a href=\"https:\/\/monochrome-watches.com\/maen-manhattan-37mm-ultra-thin-tuscan-dial-hand-wound-accessible-integrated-bracelet-review-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">its Manhattan collection<\/a>, an original take on the integrated sports watch concept. However, there\u2019s more to the brand than this, as we\u2019ve seen when reviewing <a href=\"https:\/\/monochrome-watches.com\/maen-skymaster-38-mkiii-review-accessible-automatic-racing-chronograph-hand-wound-vintage-specs-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the Skymaster 38 MKIII<\/a>, a cool and accessible racing chronograph, or when discovering a watch that made quite some noise, <a href=\"https:\/\/monochrome-watches.com\/maen-x-nico-leonard-jumping-hour-limited-edition-specs-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the Jumping Hour made in collaboration with Nico Leonard<\/a>. Today, the brand reveals another collaboration, this time honouring Asian culture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302082 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-5.jpg\"  data-\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302082\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Following their first collaboration, the Neon City watch based on the Manhattan model, Maen once again teams up with Horoverse, but this time for something more original and more classic at the same time, the Brooklyn 36 Mahjong Limited Edition. Inspired by the local culture of Hong Kong and Macau, where Horoverse originates, this watch utilises the Brooklyn 36 Triple Calendar as a blueprint and then adds clever inspirations from the Mahjong game. The technical base remains identical, featuring a compact 36mm case that\u2019s nicely finished with brushed and polished surfaces, a pleasant bezel with radially brushed finishing, and a box-shaped sapphire crystal. With its modest dimensions and resolutely classic flair, it\u2019s a watch that\u2019s meant for daily use.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302080 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-3.jpg\"  data-\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The dial is where most of the transformation takes place, utilising a colour palette that echoes the classic Mahjong colours (green, red, blue, and white) while maintaining the watch\u2019s understated texture. The base of the dial is green-toned and features recessed silver-toned and grained sub-counters, as well as a pan-pie-like minute track. The calendar indications replace classic Arabic numerals and Occidental words with Traditional Chinese characters for the month and day of the week displays. Several Easter eggs can be found: the first lunar month (Zhengyue) is deliberately aligned with the Gregorian month of January, a nod to the Chinese New Year. The date wheel has also been customised, revealing the \u201c1-Bamboo\u201d (the Bird) on the 1st of the month, and the Green Dragon \u201cFat\u201d symbolising wealth, on the 8th.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302081 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-4.jpg\"  data-\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302081\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Under the specifically decorated solid caseback lies an automatic movement from Miyota, the Calibre 9122, featuring a triple calendar function. The watch is worn on a specially selected green textile strap that presents the unique tactile feel of a traditional Mahjong table. Finally, an authentic Mahjong tile accompanies each special edition watch, hand-carved by a local master in Hong Kong, along with an illustrated poster detailing the history of the tiles.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302084 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-7.jpg\"  data-\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-302084\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Maen-Brooklyn-36-Mahjong-Limited-Edition-x-Horoverse-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Maen x Horoverse Brooklyn 36 Mahjong will be available globally as a strict 24-hour time-limited edition on Maen\u2019s website (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.maenwatches.com\/pages\/mahjong-36\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">dedicated page here<\/a>), starting March 22nd, 2026, at 8PM Hong Kong time.
