The Redesigned Maen Hudson 38 MK5
The redesigned Maen Hudson 38 MK5 marks the fifth iteration of this popular dive watch, originally introduced in 2018. The latest model features a completely updated case and construction, adhering to the founders' vision of an affordable tool watch. With a 38mm diameter and a slimmer profile than its predecessors, the Hudson 38 MK5 boasts enhanced finishing and a new steel bezel with a polished ceramic insert. The dial is sandblasted and textured, available in black or dark blue, and features improved Super-LumiNova X1 for better lume performance. The watch is powered by the new La Joux-Perret G100 movement, offering a 68-hour power reserve. Comfortable and easy to wear, the Hudson 38 MK5 comes with a black rally-style FKM rubber strap as standard, with an optional five-row stainless steel bracelet available for an additional cost. The watch’s modest aesthetic, characterized by clean lines and subtle details, makes it suitable for various occasions. While it may not stand out dramatically among competitors, its quality and comfortable fit make it a competent choice for a daily dive watch, now available for purchase on the Maen official website.
