VINTAGE-INSPIRED DIVE WATCH

Inspiring from vintage dive watches from the late '50s to early '60s, the YEMA Diver features a classic, robust design with a few distinctive elements, like a skin diver dial, broad arrow hands, a Monnin-inspired case and a double-dome acrylic crystal that adds to the overall vintage aesthetic. Equipped with our in-house automatic caliber YEMA2000 and a screw-down crown, the YEMA Diver is waterproof to 200m and combines rugged functionality while offering a nod to modern vintage enthusiasts.  

BROAD ARROW HANDS

The YEMA Diver standout design feature is the broad arrow hands, which are designed with wide, arrow-shaped tips coated with Super-LumiNova for easy reading and so as to enhance visibility in low-light conditions. 

The hour hand is short and stout while the minute hand is longer, it extends well beyond the hour markers for easy reading. The sweeping second hand features a rectangular lume-filled pip.

MONNIN-INSPIRED CASE

The 316L stainless steel case in brushed finish has a slightly chunky, but not overly thick profile and features prominent crown guards with polished oversized chamfers that create a reflective, high-contrast edge highlighting the transition between surfaces and adding depth and dimension to the case. The 20mm lugs are round shaped and wide with no sharp bevels.

This utilitarian and elegant case design sits low on the wrist due to its fairly flat profile.

1960s CLASSIC DIVER DIAL

Another striking feature of this timepiece is the classic skin diver dial utilized by YEMA and other brands back in the 1960s. The  slightly sandblasted black matt dial serves as a canvas for oversized Arabic numerals at the cardinal positions and lengthy rectangular hour markers, all of them heavily coated in vintage-like coloured lume.

20 ATM CASE BACK

The 316L stainless steel case back features YEMA's historic coat of arms, stamped with a hydraulic press in polished & brushed finish.

YEMA2000 IN-HOUSE CALIBER "NO-DATE"

The second-generation In-house Caliber YEMA2000 is powered by optimised components yielding slightly better performance than similar Standard Grade calibers, offering a Daily Rate of +/- 10 s/d and a power reserve of 42h. This YEMA2000 "No-Date" version has no date nor phantom date position on the crown.

Thanks to a new movement holder design, our In-house Caliber offers increased resistance to shocks and vibrations.
