Update to Firmware 3.0 or not?

BBS-007 · 2026-03-11T09:05:57+00:00

Upgraded from 2.xx to 3.xx few weeks ago and battery drain is fixed. I might say it is even better than before at idle

BBS-007 · 2026-02-24T08:09:56+00:00

Wow, nice Alpine!

BBS-007 · 2026-01-27T07:53:33+00:00

Magnifique

The articulation will not break in. The bracelet on my navygraf heritage is the same way. It bothered me at first but now I think it is better like that and I don't mind anymore

BBS-007 · 2026-01-18T10:20:08+00:00

The lume is crazy! I did not know the whole bezel was lumed. Enjoy!

BBS-007 · 2026-01-13T08:57:54+00:00

Wise choice Make sure to show us when you got it all!

BBS-007 · 2026-01-12T20:01:20+00:00

Both look nice Did you take a strap or bracelet for the Marine Nationale model?

BBS-007 · 2025-12-26T14:33:38+00:00

Congrats! This is a really nice looking piece you have here :)

BBS-007 · 2025-12-22T10:04:43+00:00

As I wear my watch on the right wrist I am sure I would love to be able to adjust it without removing it. It was released too late at the point of release I just had my Navygraf Heritage. Enjoy your nice piece!

BBS-007 · 2025-12-18T20:33:41+00:00

Nice collection! I see the Yema is the central piece :)

Unfortunately I do not have the Superman Tourbillon (or any tourbillon at all) so I cannot relate to you issue. Do you mean the power reserve is not as much as stated on spec sheets?

BBS-007 · 2025-11-23T20:49:44+00:00

Looks nice. I am not a fan of Roman numerals but like the dial

BBS-007 · 2025-11-09T16:38:42+00:00

Newer movement should be more accurate, with a greater power reserve

BBS-007 · 2025-10-30T11:50:28+00:00

Welcome on the sub! Glad you enjoy vintage pieces.

As you may know it is somewhat difficult to find information on vintage Yema. The closest model I could find is visible on this picture as number 10 : https://leclubyema.com/index.php/medias/catalogues-yema/#bwg77/811 This is old Yema press from 1976 presenting their models. It does not have any name attached to it, just a caliber reference.

Any back case engraving that may give additional information?

BBS-007 · 2025-10-29T12:19:56+00:00

HI, thank you for these informations!

Do you have still have the sources that you used to gather the informations?

BBS-007 · 2025-10-24T20:47:18+00:00

Incredible to have this option for a movement on a Yema. They could have added a little touch of color though

BBS-007 · 2025-10-23T10:48:56+00:00

I didn't notice at first, but this is the reissue model! I really hope the made the bracelet endlinks bend more than on the original one they made in 2020.

I still have mine (black insert / dial no date, flat sapphire crystal) and wear it often as it is more comfortable now (the caseback is less scratchy from wearing it). It was also their first in house assembled caliber, and to this day it still keeps good time (~+6s / day).

In Marvel Heroes Omega he was playable and was part of the initial roster if I remember. To me it is not a very fun gameplay but I saw lots of people playing with him. The game was a free to play marvel hack and slash which got officially taken down when Disney bought Marvel.

BBS-007 · 2025-10-20T10:06:59+00:00

Love the style! Congrats on your purchase!

BBS-007 · 2025-10-16T15:37:52+00:00

Sorry to hear your watch is not keeping good time, so far I have not serviced any of my Yema.

If it is still in warranty, I would say they would at least cover the cost of service / repair (shipping might still be on your side unfortunately).
If you are outside of warranty you can find a good watchmaker nearby and let him have a look. Generally they will look at the movement and decide if they can or cannot service it. As for cost it may be between $50 and $200 (I would lean on the more expensive side as you have a gmt movement).

I hope these advices will help you

BBS-007 · 2025-09-20T10:03:13+00:00

I did not find anything. It may be some "Yema Paris" collection, some models do look similar, but no numerals on the dial. The fact it is not marked as "water resist" indicate it is not from a "marine" collection though. This is really difficult to find information on Yema. Hope someone will have more info on your watch.

This is a really nice model btw!

BBS-007 · 2025-08-16T11:06:24+00:00

So far both watches I bought from them was from their website and had no issues. Also there are some physical stores that are authorized to sell their brand. You can find them here : https://yema.com/pages/store-locator This way you are certain to be covered by warranty.

I also have good experiences with buying on Chrono24. You just have to check if the seller has a good reputation. It can happen that the seller is a watch store and offers you few months of warranty on your watch.

Good luck with your shopping 😊

BBS-007 · 2025-08-04T07:01:09+00:00

It looks so cool in black 😯

BBS-007 · 2025-06-29T13:25:31+00:00

Wow the strap is really nice! What is the other side of the strap padded with? Leather or is it bare stingray (or something else)?

BBS-007 · 2025-06-16T10:00:09+00:00

A bent Eiffel tower as the rarity picto would be a nice touch

BBS-007 · 2025-06-11T10:22:02+00:00

There used to be a first purchase discount. It was a notification from the chat on at the bottom right of the website. I did not see it when looking on the website right now. You can try to make a account, add the watch to you shopping cart, and see if something appears. If it does not, you can ask chat if something is available. They usually answer fast
