Nonetheless, the French also displayed excellence in the fine art of watchmaking with the creation of many beautifully decorated haute d'horlogerie pieces and complex movements. While YEMA may not be a name that the masses are entirely familiar with, it is a brand synonymous with the production of fine French-made timepieces and an incredibly rich heritage.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCreated by Henry Louis Belmont, a graduate from the National Watchmaking School of Besancon, YEMA was founded in 1948 and has been producing fine quality watches since. Along with some household names in the field of watchmaking, YEMA has concentrated on producing mostly emblematic and mechanical timepieces, including sports divers for pilots, racing drivers and underwater divers. Its repertoire includes reviving the YEMA Superman, commonly touted as France's legendary dive watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"width: 500px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/YemaWristmasterSlimSmallSecCMM29Blue.M-05.jpg?v=1784099298\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #696969;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eYema Wristmaster Slim Small Seconds CMM.29 Blue\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIn the seventies, Yema went on to produced some of the most recognisable chronographs in the world. Word has it that Yema chronographs are often spotted gracing the wrist of Mario Andretti, a highly decorated racing driver with the Indianapolis 500, the Daytona 500 and the Formula One World Championship under his belt. He had even crossed the finishing line to claim the champion trophy at the Indy 500 race in 1969 with a Yema Rallye chronograph strapped on.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAlso, Yema's aviation theme watches - the Flygraf chronographs are crafted in close collaboration with pilot watch enthusiasts and professional pilots to reach the greatest heights in the watch industry. And to cover all of the sports prospects, Yema has crafted its luxurious steel sports watch segment with the Yema Wristmaster series. In 2026, Yema continued the trend and today introduces the latest streamlined version of Wristmaster, Yema Wristmaster Slim CMM.29.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"width: 500px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/YemaWristmasterSlimSmallSecCMM29Blue.M-04.jpg?v=1784099298\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #696969;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIconic 1970'S Superman Hands\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRight off the bat, the 316L stainless steel case of the YEMA Wristmaster Slim immediately grabs attention with its asymmetrical octagonal shape, offering a striking contrast to the usual round designs. YEMA has certainly mastered the art of crafting enthusiast-driven, vintage-inspired mechanical masterpieces. With a case diameter of 39mm, a lug-to-lug distance of 43.5mm, and an ultra-slim profile of just 9mm thick, the watch sits elegantly on the wrist, blending sporty allure with refined sophistication. It's the perfect balance of style and precision, making a bold yet polished statement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking a closer look at the case, details in its finishing are executed pleasingly with a continuous alternation between fine satin brushing and highly-polished chamfers, bringing a tasteful pop of refinement while preserving the marked sporting spirit. These beautiful finishes carry through towards the steel bezel, showcasing a unique design with top and bottom bevels inspired by a YEMA Sous-Marine quartz model from the 1980s, an old-school design that aged well even by modern day standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"width: 500px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/YemaWristmasterSlimSmallSecCMM29Blue.M-08.jpg?v=1784099298\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #696969;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOctagon case with raised sapphire crystal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished and vertical brushed finishes cohesively extend down to the retrograde integrated stainless steel bracelet, featuring slim links that closely hug and conform to the wrist for utmost comfort with an attractive sporty look to complement the timepiece.

True to the overarching design theme, the dial is adorned with faceted applied markers and matching hands, all polished to a brilliant mirror sheen and treated with SuperLumiNova BGW9 for a vivid glow in low light. At 9 o'clock, a small seconds subdial adds both a functional touch and a beautiful sense of visual balance.

This advanced caliber utilizes an efficient self winding system riding on ceramic ball bearings. Operating at a smooth 28,800 vibrations per hour, the 33 jewel movement boasts an impressive 70 hour power reserve that perfectly combines mechanical reliability with everyday utility. Collectors can fully appreciate this artistry through the exhibition caseback, which highlights the compact micro rotor that keeps the watch beautifully thin. To elevate the presentation, the galvanized, rhodium plated bridges feature a striking Côtes de Genève sunray motif, producing a dynamic play of light with every movement of the wrist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot stopping there, the true ingenuity that allows for such a slim and high functioning watch is the state-of-the-art micro-rotor caliber that represents a significant evolution from the brand's previous reliance on Sellita\/ETA movements or the YEMA2000 caliber. The movement, developed with input from the renowned Olivier Mory and Patrick Augerau, is a testament to French horological craftsmanship, with its components produced either by YEMA in Morteau, France, or by local suppliers within a 72km radius. This movement features a tungsten micro-rotor on ball bearings, achieving a thinner profile which contributes to the watch's overall slimmed-down case design without compromising its dive watch capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/YemaWristmasterSlimSmallSecCMM29Blue.M-10.jpg?v=1784099298\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eMicro-Rotor Caliber Manufacture Morteau 29\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo properly capture kinetic energy, a micro rotor requires meticulous engineering, with its shape and aerodynamics carefully optimized to wind the mainspring efficiently. By integrating the rotor directly into the movement plane, YEMA effectively eliminates an entire layer of mechanical bulk, making this ultra thin profile possible. It is difficult to overstate the incredible ingenuity and horological technology at play here. YEMA has beautifully showcased this mastery through a sapphire exhibition caseback, giving collectors a front row seat to the artistic layout while remarkably preserving an impressive 100 meters of water resistance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, the YEMA Wristmaster Slim represents a state of the art, modern take on a seventies inspired timepiece, beautifully blending an attractive contemporary design with nods to past references. YEMA has consistently produced outstanding watches recently, from their iconic Superman CMM.10 to various stunning collaboration models, but this latest integrated sports watch release impresses once again. Featuring a newly upgraded micro rotor movement and a beautifully redesigned small seconds dial, it proves yet again how exceptional the brand is at creating truly phenomenal timepieces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yema","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41300711374912,"sku":"76.26.29.05.SN.M\/YM","price":2490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/YemaWristmasterSlimSmallSecCMM29Blue.png?v=1783927744","url":"https:\/\/www.gnomonwatches.com\/products\/wristmaster-slim-small-seconds-cmm-29-blue","provider":"Gnomon Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
