An iconic design that Yema has been able to modernize. Very skeptical when it was released, I had to have it in my hands to see the multitude of details on this original case. 39mm but a substantial thickness that gives it a nice presence on the wrist. The oscillating weight is very present, often perceived as a drawback of the Valjoux, but which takes on its full meaning in a chrono with motorsport DNA. My little touch, a vintage-style rally-type bracelet that tapers nicely to the buckle.

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.
The range includes historic models like the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/rallygraf">Yema Rallygraf</a>, <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/superman">Yema Superman</a>, <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/meangraf">Yema Meangraf</a> or <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/navygraf">Yema Navygraf</a>, as well as more recent models like the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/wristmaster_traveller">Yema Wristmaster Traveller</a>, equipped with the in-house micro-rotor caliber, or the collaboration with Alpine with the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/yema/rallygraf_alpine_endurance_team">Yema Rallygraf Alpine Endurance Team</a>. The brand is also an official partner of the French Air &amp; Space Force, the French Navy and the National Center for Space Studies (CNES).

It's one of those watches that you discover on platforms... Especially when you're in full lockdown... my birthday is coming up... and I said to myself... but I can treat myself to a nice watch... without leaving my house!!??? Living in Madrid, the idea of having a watch 🇫🇷that's not sold in my area!! Waaaah, size 39, domed glass, "huge" trapezoidal chrono markers... black off-white contrast... Once again, if it had been a 41... I wouldn't have bought it... "Who buys Westons in 44 when they wear a 41????? » not me… same for watches… to hell with this “stupid” fashion for huge watches… This Yema, a brand that I confused a bit with Timex… nothing to do with it, Yema created in 1948, with a real history of divers and sports watches at the 🇫🇷… a quality mechanism inside… quartz… but at 180€ starting price at that time… which I lovingly “PaulNewmanéized” by customizing its bracelet… this watch has a crazy look… especially dressed in black.. a bit rock’nroll…. Yema is showing a creativity currently that I find many big brands currently lack…. To be continued….

Cravings for 6263 Big Red à la Bebel…thwarted….

I present to you my YEMA Rallygraf panda...I really like this sports watch. The time measurement functions of this Seiko VK64 hybrid movement are powered by a quartz caliber while the timing function is controlled by a mechanical module that allows the second hand to have a continuous movement for a better feeling of clarity. (Meca Quartz)... In addition, the chronograph second hand has a red tip for better readability of its performance. Hour and Minute sub-counters in homage to the design of vintage racing car dashboards. Designed for motor sports and speed, the Rallygraf bezel in tachymeter scale allows you to calculate your average speed over a given distance. Matte-finish aluminum bezel for a retro look.

The case back is distinguished by the historic YEMA coat of arms, struck with a hydraulic press with a polished/brushed effect in relief. The hands and indexes are coated with a layer of Super-LumiNova BGW9. The Rallygraf therefore offers perfect readability in the dark. The Rallygraf's steel mesh bracelet has been made of Milanese mesh for greater flexibility and finesse. The clasp is engraved with the historic YEMA logo and adjusts quickly and very easily. The dimensions are: DIAMETER I THICKNESS I LUGGS 39 mm / 11 mm / 20 mm ... K1 double dome mineral glass with 2 mm thickness with a water resistance of 100m ... Retail price 400 euros.

YEMA RALLYE ANDRETTI LIMITED EDITION

My wife owns an A112, so you can imagine that when I discovered that Yema was releasing an Autobianchi watch, I could already see myself showing off behind the wheel, watch on my wrist, and driving gloves. For the watch, it was easy, all I had to do was buy it. However, for my wife to lend me her little hot rod, that's another story!
Knowing the French watch brand, I didn't think I would be disappointed. Moreover,
given the photos available on the Internet, I really like the watch. I had the option of pre-ordering it on the official Yema website. However, I don't know about you, but personally, I like seeing the model, holding it in my hands, and feeling the materials. So I looked for retailers offering this model. However, I quickly realized that this model, being limited to 200 pieces, is almost impossible to find.
I was lucky enough to come across it in a very large Parisian store and therefore to add it to my collection. The first thing you notice when you take the watch in your hand is its solidity due to the weight of the watch. You can feel that it is robust and of quality, without being too heavy on the wrist.
The round case in brushed aluminum effect stainless steel, 42mm and 13mm thick, has a fixed bezel with a tachymeter scale. In a very pretty blue reminiscent of the colors of the famous Autobianchi rally, the bezel is very readable and graduated up to 400kmh (in Autobianchi?!). Added to the side is a silver crown featuring the Y of the French manufacturer, unlike other watches, you are not afraid that it will stay in your hand when setting the time and date. It is not like the buttons or controls of the A112 that you press gently to avoid drama.
The silver steel push buttons are very handy and work perfectly. The stopwatch can be started and stopped with a firm gesture without having to press it again or force it.
On the back of the case is the Yema coat of arms, which reflects the attention paid to the smallest detail.
The watch is sufficiently water-resistant (100 meters). The watch appears quite busy visually. Indeed, the emblematic dial in this limited edition contains a lot of information: tricolor bands, logos, color schemes, etc. So let's take things one by one.
The color of the bezel and dial remind us of the famous rally car: the famous "celestial blue" and "lipari blue" (called "blue of the cup" by A112 enthusiasts) and contrasts with the white of the indexes.
On the left, we find two tricolor bands in the colors of the French and Italian flags, which represent both the collaboration between the French watchmaker and the Autobianchi Club de France, and the one between the Frenchman André Chardonnet (vehicle importer) and the Italian car brand. The latter's logo is located at 12 o'clock. 
Then you have the famous two dashboard-style counters, characteristic features of the Rallygraf, one for the chronograph minutes and the other for the hours in 24-hour mode. When I look at these counters, I feel like I'm driving the Italian. With their small silver needles, they take up the design of the car counters. It's really very successful. 
In addition to the Autobianchi logo, there are also those of Yema and the Rallygraf model (the two checkered flags) which mark the separation between the two counters. It couldn't be more complete! 
What may seem cluttered and illegible is actually quite clear. The hands, due to their size, make the information very readable. A small disappointment concerning the movement, we would have expected a French movement for a watch designed and assembled here but we find a Myota OS21. This Japanese movement remains reliable and robust. Let's now discuss my favorite: the bracelet. I am a real fan of Rally bracelets, that is to say the perforated leather bracelets, and this one is really superb.
The perforated blue leather bracelet with blue stitching turns out to be very comfortable to wear and of very good quality. It certainly brings a touch that is both vintage and sporty which, it must be said, suits it perfectly. Usually, I change the bracelets on my watches very regularly but this is not the case. It is perfect. It is difficult to find better.
The silver pin buckle and Yema stamped finishes the sporty style. In addition, the bracelet is also made in France in a Besançon factory.



Yema "Autobianchi"

A nice chronograph with a style resolutely from the past of French motor sports. Yema is trying to make a strong comeback on the market and despite some struggles, has managed to make a place for itself and this little chronograph is part of their entry-level range which is nonetheless qualitative. Here, we have a nice mecaquartz bicompax chronograph with date, the fully polished case and the domed mineral glass give a style straight out of the past. 2 trapezoidal counters to change from the very classic round counter, a red-tipped chronograph hand and a tachymeter scale with the most beautiful effect and all underlined by the 2 small checkered flags to affirm the automotive heritage of this watch. The watch comes with a perforated leather carrying pouch to change from the traditional box which ends up in a cupboard after opening. The well-made steel bracelet adds even more to the retro heritage which nevertheless hides a modern hybrid movement which works wonderfully. I regret however the absence of a small second to make the watch more lively outside of the moments when the chronograph is running.

A neo-retro French chronograph

I really like this Yema watch which is emblematic of the brand and which refers to car racing and the Michel Vaillant comic strip...it has a Quartz movement but it is a watch with a Seiko V64 Mechanical hybrid quartz caliber at 32.768 Hz frequencies, brushed aluminum tachymeter bezel.



Petite sportive

I wanted this mecaquartz rallygraph only for its aesthetics. I love the shape of the chronographs which, when viewed under a magnifying glass, look like wooden deck blades on a boat. The blue reflection around the glass is great. The clasp of the Milanese bracelet is not great and not very secure. The second hand creates an illusion with its frequency, but I don't activate it.

A panda at the wheel

It was my first at Yema, size 39 mm and I am very happy with it. Top delivery! The watch box is actually a quality storage case which is very practical when you want to travel with several watches, therefore very useful. I dealt with Yema's customer service and they were very responsive about my request and were able to react very quickly. The support was completely taken care of by them. Sending a courier to come and collect the watch, follow-up... It was great!!

Concerning the watch, what attracted me first was its design which was very pretty, the two white inserts on the dial which are of a different color and shape give it a charm. In addition, its domed glass is very pretty and brings a nice touch to the watch. What I also liked was its Meca Quartz movement that I discovered and I wanted a watch with this type of movement, because I found that it was a little out of the ordinary.

For a watch at this price (350/400 E), the quality and finishes are correct. I received it with a Milanese strap, but I never use it, I prefer the rubber strap which highlights the watch more, I find. This strap is a rather simple rubber plastic strap, nothing exceptional, but it does its job.
So it's a nice little chrono that makes an impression.



Nice little Mechanical Quartz chronograph
