    Hi OF

    I’m selling my Yema Superman 24.11.17 Dive Watch, the Watch has a lovely blue dial which seems to change colour from a dark grey to a light blue depending on the lighting conditions. The watch was fully serviced mid last year by our very own Chris at CJNWatches and he did a great job and thorough job of getting it back running like a top and bringing out its aesthetic qualities.
    I have a real penchant for Yema watches, the Superman was really innovative for its time- 300m of Water resistance when Rolex Subs were 200m; the locking Bezel mechanism; the elegant French design flair - they’re just cool I think.

    A bit about the Watch

    Case - 39mm Steel Case, drilled 19mm lugs
    Caseback - stamping in clearly visible and sharp opening marks but no deep gouges
    Bezel - “Bakelite” Dive Bezel with Superman patented locking mechanism
    Dial - Blue with angled, applied hour markers that really catch the light, a few marks under magnification. Tritium Lume dots
    Hands - Tritium, a small pinhole in the minute hand Lume , this is stable. Seconds Hand is a correct replacement relumed to match the Lume Patina
    Movement- Calibre FE4611A automatic winding with quickset date, FE is France Ebauches
    Crystal- Domed Perspex repolished by Chris st service
    Crown - unsigned as is correct for the reference

    Please feel free to let me know via DM if you have any questions.
    It seemed a shame to open the Watch for movement shots so soon after its service - however I have movement shots during its service which I can share if you’re you’re keen on the Watch. I also have a 60+ page service report available to pass on to the buyer.
