Here is a vintage automatic watch from the BAUME & MERCIER brand from 1965, reference model Skin diver MLB, the caliber of the watch seems to be the following: AS 1902/03 which was often used by several diving brands of the same size in the 60s/70s. The numbers on the dial stand out with a nice patina as does the background of the anthracite black dial. It has a diameter of 35 mm excluding the crown, the glass is made of plexiglass, the steel bracelet is not original. It would deserve a nice suede or classic diving bracelet.

Superb vintage automatic watch from the OMEGA brand from 1958, Seamaster model reference 2828, with caliber 470. 
The diameter of the watch is 33 mm, it has its original steel bracelet. 
It is an elegant watch that can be worn on any occasion except sporty of course. 
Point to emphasize: The watch seems to have been polished hence its new appearance and the dial has an exceptional resistance to the sun.

Here is a YEMA Navygraf II, a vintage French diving watch from the late 70s.
I fell in love with the design of this completely atypical watch, with an original steel bracelet that is very comfortable to wear.
The crown is quite massive and brings a touch of robustness and sportiness.
The patina of the dial is exceptional with a golden effect, and bronze depending on the daylight.
The automatic France Ebauche 990 FEE movement provides correct precision given its age.
To conclude, this Yema that I have had for about a year is really a model that I like to wear daily, a real treat.

Yema was created in 1948 by Henry Louis Belmont in Besan&ccedil;on in France. It became famous for its sporty and robust watches made in France and in particular the Yema Superman which in 1963 became the first French watch waterproof to 300 meters. After difficult years during the quartz crisis, Yema has regained momentum by promoting its historical heritage and offering in-house movements like its micro-rotor caliber launched in 2022.

Yema navygraf in 39 mm. With tropic bracelet. A very pretty model from Yema. I was seduced by the orange color of the indexes and hands. Very readable. The case back with the old brand logo is superb. The bracelet is just comfortable. The whole is of a beautiful perceived quality. Discreet in addition. As for the movement, it suits me very well.

A nice model...

Great opportunity to add a Navygraph to my collection, this limited series of 200 pieces for the launch of this model equipped with the new Yema CMM 20 manufacture caliber.

This version is characterized by its minimalist and chic style without losing its diver's DNA (300m water resistance)

Simple but neat finishes, deep black dial (difficult to show off in a photo), applied indexes, and sapphire black bezel. The details that I like: Yellow second hand and "Navygraph" screen printing that energize the dial, chamfers that extend to the crown protector, sapphire crystal caseback revealing this new micro rotor caliber.

The 39mm and 9mm thick case is perfect for my wrist...

Small downside on the leather strap a little stiff and not very pleasant to wear (to my taste). It will probably soften over time.

Cr&eacute;&eacute;e en 2017 par le designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu apporte une dimension nouvelle &agrave; l&rsquo;horlogerie en cr&eacute;ant des montres &agrave; la fois esth&eacute;tiques, &eacute;tonnantes et profond&eacute;ment symboliques.

Created in 2017 by designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu brings a new dimension to watchmaking by creating watches that are aesthetic, astonishing and deeply symbolic.

Breaking the codes of traditional watchmaking by providing a new vision of time, Beaubleu watches go off the beaten track by featuring round, hollowed-out hands, inspired by the work of Galileo in his understanding of the solar system.
