Yema GMT is back for pre-order in 3 new variants. This time you can opt-out of the bezel lock, the bezel is sapphire instead of aluminum, and each edition is limited to 150 numbered pieces. There is a version with a green bezel, grey/black, and black.

As well as a 41mm and 39mm option

 

The blue/grey is also still listed, though as "sold out" - I really hope they don't mass produce it. I'm kinda bummed those of us who jumped in early didn't get the chance to specify size, strap, or bezel lock... but then I realize I'd have still bought it in 39mm with the bezel lock anyway so whatever. Glad I've got one with the aluminum bezel too

 

I know Gnomon had all three variants for sale a few weeks back, but looks like the blue/grey and pepsi ones are now gone.

I wonder if Yema will sell us spare bezel parts separately? Also, I kinda dig the no bezel lock....would it be as simple as removing the crown and taking that part out? I know I know.....

 

From what I can tell, yes. But thinking about it, I like the bezel lock - it's a differentiator for the Yema. Otherwise it just looks like any other diver or GMT.

Plus, it helps keep my bezel in place since the markings are misaligned....

 

Just noticed the new version has applied markers as well.

I was worried about bending my bezel lock trying to do this, as the lock isn't aligned between the teeth. At least it wasn't when I tried. Here is the set up I've landed on to make the misalignment less annoying / apparent to me. I have the GMT hand set to Korea where my in-laws live, and the bezel set to Greenwich. (Edit - I realized after I posted this I miscalculated - my first GMT here... and the bezel is in fact not set to Greenwich. Whoops.)

 

Not for me. Just like with Rolexes, I believe something's been lost with these with the switch to applied markers. Glad to know there's a difference between the first series and the new one though.

As for the bezel lock, eh. I don't need it so if it gets bent, it gets bent

 

Looks like the pepsi is back in stock: https://www.gnomonwatches.com/collections/yema/products/superman-heritage-gmt-blue-red-ltd-ed-100pcs

(Gnomon still had the coke as well)
