Manta - Midnight Black

Wow, words cannot describe this piece. Considering it is EC first watch you would think they have been in the business for decades! The originality in design coupled with the Swiss movement is exemplary! The fit and finish of this watch just goes to show how good a piece can be for a great price. All this isn’t taking the ethics and will of the brand and owner to make a difference and help children and young people in need! Wow. Keep up the good work EC team! 👊🫶

It was a great personal interaction with someone who cares about their product

For a fledgling company, this is excellent. The dial is superb and is what won me over when I met the owner of the company at an event. He is a really nice guy too and I look forward to future releases and developments.

Brilliant product. Brilliant price. Great service. Top draw micro brand pushing forward the best of British Watch Making.

I’m a watch collector and this is the first new watch I have ever bought. I own about 40 pre owned pieces varying in value but I had to break my own rule of not buying new and get this watch given the quality and price of the Manta.

Can’t wait to see what this brand does next.

Big thanks to Sean and the team.

Beautiful design on the Manta dial, super comfortable and strap sits perfectly. Bought direct from the founder Sean who couldn't do enough to facilitate the opportunity to view the Manta in person, and to make the sale personable and easy. A brand to watch.

The service provided by the Founder Sean on the day of purchase was excellent. Friendly, informative and passionate about the product. Excellent ustomer service was evident when I received a personal phone call to ask how I was enjoying the watch. Definitely a brand to support.

A truly enjoyable buying experience; smooth, friendly and with excellent communications throughout. Product delivered quickly and on time, exactly as promised.

A beautiful contemporary sporty time-piece, where overall design and detail is of highest quality. The watchmakers have done a great job on both the watch itself and also high quality great looking packaging and documentation.

The watch was one of the most eye catching ones at the British Watchmakers’ Day fair that was held in London earlier in March. All the other colour variants look great, but the Sky Blue was the one my wife fell in love with at first sight. The watch is excellent quality with a reliable Swiss movement, mine runs +2 secs/day. The dial looks fantastic, it looks great on the photos but in real life, it’s absolutely stunning with all the small details on it. The rubber strap is very comfortable and perfectly matches the colour of the dial.
So for that money, you get a unique watch with amazing build quality. Also, the customer service has been outstanding! Since the purchase of the watch, Seán from Edward Christopher has been in touch just to make sure that everything is ok with my purchase and if I am fully satisfied with their product. It was a nice touch that made me looked after and valued as a customer. As a happy owner of the Manta, I can strongly recommend Edward Christopher watches and wish the brand a lot of success.

The Manta 40mm Dive Watch sits beautifully on the wrist. It’s a great size and looks super. I love the detail and decoration of the dial which is stunning. Would definitely recommend this watch as it’s a great addition to any collection.

I first saw this watch at WatchPro Salon in late 2023 and was immediately quite besotted. So I was thrilled when I got the chance to pick one up at British Watchmakers Day a few months later.
The first things that strikes you is its stunning guilloche dial and striking shade of red which fades to white at the very centre. Absolutely beautiful and quite hypnotic to look at!
But this watch isn’t just a pretty face, it’s a fully fledged 200m water resistant diver with a compressor style inner rotating bezel and FKM rubber strap. Powered by a super reliable, hackable Swiss Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement this watch has a scratch resistant sapphire crystal and 40mm stainless steel case which is a very wearable , super comfortable size indeed.
Quite simply the best looking dive watch I have seen in a very, very long time!
If the bold red shade isn’t for you, there are other colours to check out.
Highly recommended! And it’s a clear that Edward Christopher are 100% a brand to watch!
