MANHATTAN BLACK
ELECTRA WATCHES PRODUCT VAT included in EU
The quiet one. The Manhattan Black takes the codes of the classic dress watch, a slim 38 mm mirror-polished steel case and a double-domed sapphire crystal, and gives them Electra's lightning-bolt signature. Its glossy black enamel dial, with gold-tone indexes, inner ring and hands, is the most classic reading of the collection. Inside, a Miyota 9039 automatic movement. Water-resistant to 101 metres and assembled in Morteau: elegant enough for a suit, tough enough for the night.

The quiet one
All the storm, none of the noise
White lightning over the Financial District. The Manhattan Black is the most classic reading of the collection: a glossy black enamel dial with gold-tone indexes, inner ring and hands.
Black and gold, the colours of a city lit up after midnight. The quietest of the four storms, and the one that says the most.
A dress watch, unleashed
Madison Avenue elegance, without the limits
The Manhattan takes the codes of classic dress watchmaking, a slim 38 mm case only 10.8 mm thick, fully mirror-polished and topped with a double-domed sapphire crystal, and pairs them with the American elegance of the Golden Sixties.
Openworked geometric hands, a structuring inner ring and Electra's lightning-bolt indexes break up its classic look just enough. It slips under a shirt cuff, sits right with a suit or a tuxedo, and never blends in.
101 metres
A dress watch that isn't afraid of water
Most dress watches are rated to 30 metres, barely enough for a downpour. The Manhattan is rated to 101. Grey flannel suit, tuxedo or something more relaxed: it goes everywhere. And if the night ends with your feet in the pool, it comes along.
Inside
Automatic, and in no hurry
The Manhattan beats to the Miyota 9039 automatic movement: 28,800 vibrations per hour and around 42 hours of power reserve, wound by the movement of your wrist.
No date window to break the symmetry of the dial. Just three hands, an inner ring and four lightning bolts.
