Why customers love Yema?

I was given this watch for my 20th birthday. It is my first mechanical watch. I had methodically chosen it based on several criteria which were: French, manufacture caliber, diver, domed glass, old house, "vintage" look. I hesitated for a long time with the classic Superman, which I tried and found bland. This watch has a divine and divisive bezel. Going from dark red to a very pale red and from an intense black to a light gray, we never stop playing with its reflections. When we read the time we can not guess which color scheme we will come across. Aluminum is much more lively than ceramic. But much more fragile ... We are surprised at first by its cream indexes and hands, which give a patinated and vintage look. The tone on tone of the date window is to be noted. The red tip at the "shovel" second hand, the superman written in red, and the GMT hand still in red are crucial details for me, which give an overall coherence to the design of this watch. The original metal bracelet is quite qualitative, with a possible micro adjustment, the only downside is the first link which is almost rigid and clearly extends the horn to horn. Now I will tell you about its biggest flaw: the luminescence. When on the new models, Yema now insistently indicates using Superluminova Grade A, we understand that our watch has a low-end luminova. To begin with, the hands have much more luminova than the indexes and we can see it immediately. The watch takes a long time to charge, and the charge decreases visibly. Apart from artificially lighting it using the flash of your phone for several tens of seconds or after intense sun exposure and immediately going to a very dark area, we never see its shine. If I had been able to see this problem a priori I would never have chosen it. To conclude, I think that this watch is not "perfect" to start watchmaking as could be a Sérica, or a Seiko. But its bezel, its domed glass, its versatility on any type of bracelet, its water resistance to 300m, and its unique design make it a completely satisfying watch and a real blessing on the wrist. I think I will wear it with pride all my life.

I present to you my YEMA Superman blue lagoon in Quartz version (vast subject ...) it is a very pretty watch but not very loved by lovers of the Yema brand? ... Yet I am one of the people who love Yema and I would never part with this watch ... it is too far from the codes of the iconic superman version of the French brand (I have two other Superman a gmt and a bronze green) ... the blue lagoon has first of all a diameter of 40 mm and its shape and its case is completely different from a classic superman ... But I personally like this watch a lot, it was delivered to me at the time with a steel bracelet but I prefer it on a blue or black Tropic type bracelet and I alternate. Its diameter is 40mm Waterproof 300m Case thickness 13mm mineral glass Price 300 euros.

I had been wanting a YEMA for some time, and then I chose this model with its immaculate dial background and its superb shark bracelet. It is equipped with the YEMA 2000 4hz manufacture movement with 42 hours of power reserve, protected by a double-domed sapphire and has a diameter of 41mm It also exists in 39 mm. As for precision and comfort, I will get back to you in a few weeks...

I bought my Yema Meangraf Y70 2 years ago on the Yema website and I am very happy with it. This watch is with a hybrid mechanical quartz Seiko VK64 movement. This watch has a reinforced racing look for this bi-compax chronograph with its kilometer bezel and its yellow and white hands in contrast with the dark gray dial. The steel mesh bracelet of the Meangraf Y70 was made of Milanese mesh for more flexibility and finesse. The clasp is engraved with the historic YEMA logo and adjusts quickly and very easily.

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.

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.

Yema YEAU 011, automatic, 40 mm diameter. I think I've had it for 8 years (?) ... I don't wear it... not to my taste anymore. It works very well and is in new condition. I don't know what the movement is, Yema 2000 perhaps? A model without problems that makes me think of an attempt at a revival of the brand. Since then, the evolution is striking and so much the better.

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.

The practicality of the GMT function resonates with me, leading to an ongoing quest for an affordable yet commendable GMT watch. I remember reading a review on "Beyond The Dial" of this intriguing watch from Yema, obviously well-known in France but not particularly to me. I have been seduced by the opportunity to match my needs for a GMT and my love for France... Esteemed among watch enthusiasts for their legacy, Yema has further expanded their repertoire with this GMT, obviously complementing their iconic Superman aesthetic with functional diversity and a hint of color on the bezels. I chose the 41mm stainless steel, providing a remarkable 500-meter water resistance, enhanced by a redesigned crown and fortified case back. Two options were on the table regarding the bezel, and I decided to go for the 'Batman' style blue-and-grey bezel that highlights the red seconds hand and 500 meters label. The decision between sizes leans towards the 41mm, which offers better proportions... This is for me, of course. Even though I haven't tested it, I believe it was a good call. The watches feature a sapphire-crystal bezel that, along with the hands and hour markers, is treated with Super-LumiNova for low-light legibility. The locking mechanism on the GMT bezel, a carryover from their legacy dive watches, does the job from a design standpoint but might be redundant from a usage standpoint. The caliber appears to be the in-house YEMA3000 GMT, a robust movement with a 42-hour power reserve and independent GMT hand adjustment. It's working pretty well, obviously, even though I was not expecting anything particular from an accuracy standpoint. From what I've read recently, Yema has made a huge jump with some additional in-house calibers in partnership with Olivier Mory... Wearability is a significant highlight, with two options for straps or a steel bracelet. I have worn both and, as you can see in my photos, I have made the Tropic strap my own. For a bit more than USD 1,000, this Yema is a no-brainer, doing the job with its vintage charm.

I was looking for a sports watch that embodies the world of automobiles, and I immediately fell in love with this Rallygraf in collaboration with Alpine. It ticked all the boxes: a French, elegant watch, and deeply rooted in the world of motorsports. The YEMA Rallygraf Alpine Endurance Team - Méca-Quartz, sand dial is a true celebration of automotive passion and French excellence. Inspired by rallies, this special edition celebrates the partnership between YEMA and the iconic Alpine Endurance Team, a symbol of performance and innovation. Its finely textured sand dial evokes extreme terrain and perfectly matches the blue accents and black subdials, a nod to Alpine's visual identity. On the mechanical side, it features a hybrid meca-quartz movement, combining modern precision with the tactile sensation and charm of a traditional chronograph. With its 39 mm stainless steel case, both compact and ergonomic, and its tachymeter bezel ideal for measuring speeds, this watch combines aesthetics and functionality. The perforated leather strap, inspired by vintage, brings a retro touch while offering optimal comfort.
