The PEARLDIVER is a professional diving watch strongly inspired by the YEMA Navygraf II of the 1970s, in particular the original bezel markers, the black coated hands and the white lollipop seconds hand. The PEARLDIVER is equipped with our new In-house Caliber YEMA2000 and a Hesalite Superdome crystal in the pure tradition of vintage models. 

ALUMINIUM BEZEL

Oversized, slightly curved, rotating divers’ watch bezel marked in five-minute increments. Aluminium insert for a neo-vintage look.

DIVE WATCH HANDS

A black PVD treatment is applied to the hour and the arrow-shaped minute hands. High-contrast white lollipop sweep seconds hand.

HIGH CONTRAST 'NO-DATE' DIAL

The creamy hue of the printed markers and hands resemble that of original-condition vintage watches, creating a striking contrast against the matt black, perfectly symmetrical no-date dial.

'BIG CROWN'

'Big Crown' with no crown guard in tribute to the 1950's classic dive watches.

STEEL CASE-BACK

The 316L Steel caseback proudly displays YEMA's crest beautifully embossed with a hydraulic press. Marin Ravenel's collaboration is recognised via the model's reference YCL1-MR. 

HESALITE SUPERDOME CRYSTAL

The PEARLDIVER features a massive 3.50mm double domed Hesalite crystal for a resolute vintage look. The Hesalite proposes a charming, softer and more gentle luster than sapphire. In certain angles, the curvature of the Hesalite distorts the seconds track around the edge of the dial in a particular way that isn't found on most modern watches.

IN-HOUSE CALIBER

YEMA2000

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.

The PEARLDIVER is the very first model designed by one of our fans via our collaborative platform YEMA CoLabs. Marin Ravenel, the project creator, is a watch collector fond of vintage dive watches from most renowned brands. Marin's PEARLDIVER is inspired from the YEMA Navygraf II from the 1970's, a vintage model too often neglected for its particular case, which has been completely redesigned to give it a more modern look. The watch offers a perfect vertical symmetry with its no-date dial and non-graduated bezel that displays the same markers and symbols on both sides.The superdome hesalite crystal from the 1970's returns to YEMA's catalog with the PEARLDIVER reinforcing the vintage toolwatch look. With its contained 38mm size and a reasonable 46mm lug-to-lug, the Pearl Diver is the perfectly fitting neo-vintage toolwatch for wrists up to 7.5" (19cm). 

YEMA's signature #TimeofHeroes dates from 1970. It reflects the history and values of the brand and what it stands for. It tells the adventures of remarkable sportsmen and explorers who have achieved the extraordinary under the most extreme conditions, with a YEMA watch on their wrists. Since the 1970s, YEMA equips the French Air Force with indestructible, high-precision timepieces.
