{"product_id":"manaia","title":"Manaia","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Manaia is a bird like creature that appears regularly in traditional and contemporary Maori wood carving. There are many variations to the design but they all tend to have the overly large beak with a small head. Nobody is exactly sure of where it originated or the original meaning behind it. It can be found on many old pre-European wood carvings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManaia are also frequently carved in pounamu (greenstone\/jade) and can be seen also according to the artists interpretation..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are some Maori that believe that The Manaia is a symbolic guardian angel which every person has, and is an unseen light surrounding each individual similar to the European aura. Its role as a guardian angel is to protect from untimely death by accident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever each individual has an appointed time to pass from the mortal world into the spiritual and the Manaia helps with their passage into the spirit world and their journey to Cape Reinga where they finally sing farewell to their loved ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design features two manaia facing in opposite directions above and below each other. They are supported by a tiki at the shoulder representing mans connection with the spiritual world around us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9015 Miyota with hacking seconds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44mm excluding the crown \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, PVD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBezel\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand engraved\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrown\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw down crown.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sapphire (double domed), AR coating.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial and hands\u003c\/strong\u003e: Super Luminova C3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressure valve\u003c\/strong\u003e: functional pressure escape valve, protecting the watch against pressure differences that can occur below 300 meters of depth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater-resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500m\/1650ft Water resistance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrap\u003c\/strong\u003e: All new black PU rubber strap with logo, name and customized deployment buckle Plus Black leather strap\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003ePlease note that this will be the first time we will use the new Miyota 9015 movement.\u003cbr\u003eThis movement is positioned between the well known ETA 2824 and more luxurious 2892 movements.
