Story & Heritage Founded in France in 1948, Yema became one of the best-known names in French watchmaking, producing everything from classic everyday watches to distinctive sports and professional models. While Yema is particularly associated with mechanical watches such as the Superman and Rallygraf, the brand also participated in the quartz era, producing elegant and accessible watches that reflected the changing tastes of the late 20th century. This Yema Paris represents the more restrained side of the brand. Its warm champagne dial, slim gold-tone case and simple baton indexes create a timeless aesthetic, while the practical date complication makes it a versatile everyday watch. A refined vintage piece for collectors of Yema, French watchmaking and classic European quartz watches. Internal Reference Number - ITM-936
