Iconic watch art prints. Made in Switzerland, lifetime guarantee

The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

Let's go for the collection, this new Tissot PRX, limited to 1,975 pieces for the 50th anniversary of Goldo, joins the previous version released in 2024. This PRX, with its usual shapes, comes in a full black DLC case and bracelet. The embossed Goldo brings a dynamic touch to the matte dial of this new edition. Unlike the first version, the lum is very effective and reinforces the dynamics of this dial. Finally, the contrast between this full black dial and the 18k gold "asterohache" seconds hand adds a chic touch and a premium feel to the model.
Caliber-wise, there's no change... The packaging is just like the first edition, with a saucer and illustrated box of very good quality. In short, for PRX fans and those nostalgic for 80s cartoons, this watch is a must-have.

Focus on this small Meca quartz Bi-Compax, a collaboration between Yema and the Air and Space Force.
This small chronograph displays essential aeronautical codes... Arabic numeral indexes and ultra-legible hands with lum, domed hesalite crystal for safety, pushers and a crown engraved with the AAE logo, all on a 40 mm, 9.5 mm thick case linked to the Seiko caliber that powers this model with its brushed finishes and matte black dial.

The well-made fabric strap confirms the overall style of this watch.

For collectors who love aeronautics and timepieces.

Looking for a Type 20 with a flyback complication without resorting to fragile, difficult-to-wear vintage models or expensive brands, I chose this Auricoste, which updates its iconic 1950s model.

It incorporates the codes and specifications of the legendary Type 20, such as the hesalite crystal and flyback chronograph, while adding a few modern touches, such as its Dubois Depraz automatic caliber with a 42-hour power reserve and its black DLC-coated 12-hour steel bezel.

Mounted on a beautifully crafted brown leather strap, this limited-edition model harks back to the brand's history and the legendary watches that equipped French army fighter pilots.

New to my collection, this Explo is discreet, timeless, technical, and sober at the same time. If I had to compare it to another model in my collection, it would be with the Tudor BB58 navy blue… A watch that goes everywhere that you can wear in any circumstance, the one you choose when you lack inspiration for the day. In short, a must-have, but you already knew that 👌

Rolex Explorer 40

The Speedmaster is an essential diver to keep in your collection. Like its sister the Speedmaster, the Seamaster is indeed an Omega "master".

Powerful, ultra modern and timeless, the case, bezel and bracelet shine brightly.

In the blue version, the dial (color and waves) truly lives according to the light and the direction of the gaze... the date appears at 6:00 in white on a blue background and blends in very discreetly without unbalancing the whole. A nod to the hands and the super bi-color lumi-nova.... See photo.

In short, a beautiful piece that I enjoy wearing regularly on the weekend, but which remains very present on the wrist with its 42mm and almost 200 gr.



Essential Omega

This OMNIS LUNA is a real gem in this collaboration with FLYBACK, the Sunday watch podcast 👌

A stunning orange guilloché dial, integrated hour markers, and ultra-comfortable rubber straps (orange and black included) make this watch a real summer hit.

Featuring a branded crown, a brushed and polished buckle, and a beautifully finished case, it's available at a very reasonable price.

The model is available in several colors and is powered by a Miyota caliber.

Enjoy without moderation!!!



OMNIS LUNA X FLYBACK

Yema is born in Besan&ccedil;on (France) in 1948 under the drive of Henry-Louis Belmont, the brand established itself with robust tool watches aimed at diving, motorsport, aviation and even spaceflight, keeping a Franche-Comt&eacute; industrial footprint and a design identity that is immediately recognizable.
<h3>Superman and bezel-lock: a French take on the diver&rsquo;s tool</h3>
The brand&rsquo;s emblem, the 1963 Superman, introduced a bezel-locking device adjacent to the crown, designed to prevent accidental rotation underwater and turned into a signature detail of modern re-editions&mdash;a simple, legible solution that embodies the tool-watch brief while asserting angular casework and a very &ldquo;instrumental&rdquo; mid-case, resulting in confident wrist presence without sacrificing function.
Beyond the lock itself, alternating brushed and polished planes define crisp volumes, generous markers secure readability, and water-resistance targets real use, so the look flows from function; this coherence&mdash;often imitated in spirit but hard to reproduce in detail&mdash;anchors the Superman as the quintessential &ldquo;French diver,&rdquo; worn as much for its stance as for its endurance, with a technical signature instantly spotted by seasoned enthusiasts.
<h3>Rallye, Rallygraf, Meangraf, Yachtingraf: racing and regatta chronographs</h3>
In the 1960s&ndash;1970s, Yema produced graphic, highly legible chronographs linked to car racing (Rallye/Rallygraf, Meangraf) and sailing (Yachtingraf), with high-contrast dials and purposeful scales; the lineage lives on in current re-issues and in emblematic anecdotes, such as Mario Andretti&rsquo;s chronograph during the 1969 Indy 500, evidence that the brand accompanied real competitive use with simple, robust solutions built around readability in demanding conditions.
<ul>
<li>Yema Rallygraf &mdash; &ldquo;Racing&rdquo; spirit, contrasting sub-dials, clear markers.</li>
<li>Yema Meangraf &mdash; Bold 1970s codes, immediate legibility, strong graphics.</li>
<li>Yema Yachtingraf &mdash; Regatta timing features, nautical aesthetics.</li>
<li>Yema Flygraf &mdash; Pilot-oriented, purposeful field readability.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Spationaute and CNES: Yema&rsquo;s journey into space</h3>
On June 24, 1982, Jean-Loup Chr&eacute;tien, the first Frenchman in space, launched to Salyut 7 wearing a Yema Spationaute&mdash;recognized as the first Western European watch flown into orbit&mdash;kicking off a series tied to CNES missions; the episode bolsters the image of a broadly accessible brand meeting exacting briefs while fueling a national narrative where a wrist-borne instrument serves as a mission companion that is pragmatic, durable and symbolic at once.
Beyond the space anecdote, the point is continuity: an &ldquo;instrument&rdquo; mindset, contrasted hands and bezel, robustness prioritized over ornament, and respectful nods to period graphics; it is less the one-off feat than the way it permeates the collections that matters, with editions that recall the lineage without caricature so as to cultivate a technical memory serving modern-day use.
<h3>&ldquo;in-house&rdquo; movement path: MBP1000, YEMA2000/3000 and CMM.20</h3>
Industrially, Yema communicates a gradual strengthening of its own calibres: after MBP1000 (announced in 2011), YEMA2000 (three-hand) and YEMA3000 (GMT) update the base with an emphasis on precision and durability, then a &ldquo;CMM.20&rdquo; micro-rotor of manufacture grade crowns the range&mdash;conceived, developed and assembled in French workshops&mdash;an offer meant to combine accessibility and independence through a measured progression rather than a speculative leap.
In practice, these evolutions coexist with references powered by other suppliers depending on era and use; coherence across the lineup relies as much on case architecture and perceived quality as on the movement spec itself, so the buyer&rsquo;s key step is to define the need (three-hand, GMT, chrono) and weigh what each calibre brings in power reserve, accuracy and service, to secure a credible technical match to the intended use.
<h3>Relocalization, workshops and distribution: a Besan&ccedil;on&ndash;Morteau through-line</h3>
Geographic anchoring remains a cue: between historic Besan&ccedil;on and today&rsquo;s development/assembly in Morteau, the brand structures a value chain re-centered on Franche-Comt&eacute; while keeping targeted external partners&mdash;an organization aiming to secure skills and lead times and to better control quality upstream, in a spirit of industrial proximity and traceability of key operations.
On the distribution side, Yema blends direct sales with selected retailers and builds editorial context around re-issues (Superman 63, Navygraf, Rallygraf) and their updates; scarcity is not artificially staged but comes from reasonable volumes and production cycles, hence the value, for enthusiasts, of tracking availability windows and trying sizes at the right time to lock a choice that is informed, personal and grounded in real use.&nbsp;
<h3>Positioning and pricing: a clear-identity French tool-watch</h3>
Yema&rsquo;s stance is easy to read: tool watches with strong design at studied prices relative to spec (exact public ranges: not disclosed), options in steel, bronze, titanium or ceramic depending on the line, and stepping up via complications or in-house movements; the value equation lies in the balance of design/function and in the stated French industrial narrative, appealing to enthusiasts of characterful &ldquo;tools&rdquo; more than to seekers of overtly decorative luxury pieces.
Value in use, however, hinges on ownership fit: bracelet comfort, lug-to-lug, dial contrast, night legibility and water-resistance aligned with your activities; put differently, the right Yema is the one that disappears into the action&mdash;swimming, driving, flying, sailing&mdash;while keeping its aesthetic signature, which calls for trying multiple diameters and thicknesses to validate stable, morphology-friendly wearing comfort.
<h3>Choosing your Yema: sizing, context and care</h3>
Start by defining dominant use: daily versatility (Navygraf, &ldquo;skin&rdquo; Superman), nautical activity (Yachtingraf), automotive (Rallygraf/Meangraf), aviation (Flygraf); then confirm real-world size (diameter/thickness/lug-to-lug) and bracelet ergonomics, and arbitrate between a recent &ldquo;in-house&rdquo; calibre and a proven third-party option according to your technical appetite and service constraints&mdash;the aim being long-term coherence among style, function and maintenance.
<ul>
<li>Yema Superman &mdash; Emblematic diver, bezel lock, strong identity.</li>
<li>Yema Navygraf &mdash; High-contrast legibility, versatile marine spirit.</li>
<li>Yema Rallygraf &mdash; Racing codes, readable chronographs.</li>
<li>Yema Yachtingraf &mdash; Regatta indications, nautical styling.</li>
<li>Yema Flygraf &mdash; Pilot orientation, clear functional cues.</li>
</ul>
For care, follow service intervals and have water-resistance checked after any shock or opening; clean bracelet and bezel recesses regularly, and remember that precise adjustment and appropriate lubrication extend timekeeping stability&mdash;simple habits that underpin everyday performance over the long run.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
Yema addresses enthusiasts who want expressive tool watches rooted in a French narrative and designed for use first&mdash;diving, road, cockpit or deck. You recognize them by crisp dials, forthright cases and design details that prioritize function. To decide, start from your real practice, refine by size and readability, then choose between heritage re-editions and contemporary interpretations. Finally, cross-check your pick with Dialicious customer reviews to validate long-term relevance.

First edition of the Superman Heritage 63 in a limited series of 1000 copies released in 2020, this model is equipped with the famous tortoiseshell bracelet also limited to 500 copies out of 1000.

Apart from this famous unique tortoiseshell bracelet, a real gem of the brand (except the rather cheap clasp), this watch is a direct tribute to the 1963 diver and takes up its codes, which gives it a very vintage side with the most beautiful effect. Black lacquered dial, applied and circled indexes, domed sapphire, green lumi, date window also circled, in short a multitude of details that make this model (39 mm) unique with very neat finishes. The photos speak for themselves. A must-have in your collection of divers...



Almost perfect

After much hesitation about taking the manufacture model, I took the plunge with the Swiss Sellita movement which can be very easily serviced by any watchmaker. I took the 39 mm model which sits perfectly on my 17.5 mm wrist. It is a very refined watch, it is magnificent.

Superman heritage swiss made

When yema returned from the ashes following its buyout I became interested again and fell for the 1st and reissue of their superman series and fell for the superman quartz one of the only watches that I own in Quartz by the way because at the beginning their automatic amber movement had had some problems resolved since what is wonderful this watch accompanies me occasionally but I still love it as much

Iconic

Mra first Yema. a real beautiful diver.... And French too...cock-a-doodle-doo. It houses an ETA movement. (a real tractor). Very nice proportions, perfect for chicken wrists. The bezel block really gives a unique look to the watch. Even if it is not very practical for calculating the cooking of pasta. a beautiful rebirth of Yema

Superman legacy.

Yema Superman Héritage quartz, 39 mm, coral dial...pleasure purchase far from the controversies of color, movement, legitimacy...I found this watch very pretty, preferably with the tropic bracelet. Once on the wrist it is light but with a little lack of comfort due to my bracelet / wrist size ratio! About 310 euros...that's fine!!!👍😁

The red is on!!!

After 1 and a half years of intensive wearing of my Yema Superman Heritage Dark blue Quartz, it remains faithfully attached to my wrist, to my great pleasure. Indeed, this timepiece can count on a "hell of a face" - the iconic one of the Superman model -, on an attractive price and on perfect dimensions, to seduce all wrists. One last little piece of advice, in case of a problem, avoid Yema after-sales service, prefer an independent watchmaker ;)

We are inseparable!
