Nice watch - love the proportions. The only thing I would change on it, and other Yemas for that matter, is they should use "Automatique" on the dial. Embrace their French heritage and give us more of it. Hats off to Yema for leaving the date off the dial.
It's also odd that they print the depth rating in feet instead of metres. I thought perhaps this was in keeping with the aviation theme, but they do it on their divers too.
@@vaguepast on a pilot's it makes absolute sense, in divers I do not know. With that being said, it's something quirky and I kinda like it... even tho I am pro-metric in every other thing.
I actually purchased the Yema French Air Force Superman watch earlier in August after seeing multiple ads for it while I was on a training assignment for the Army. Once I recieved it I fell in love! What an amazing piece it is, perfectly weighted and it blends seamlessly into any outfit or uniform I'm wearing. While searching for details about the watch I actually stumbled upon your channel, and have been subscribed ever since!
My French grandfather wore a Yema. As a reminder of this man that I admired for his physical prowess as a rock climber and hiker, as a reminder of my French heritage (for I've been living in the USA for the past 6 years), and as a reminder of home (Yema comes from the same region that I grew up in and where I still travel to yearly), I have purcharsed a Yema for myself about a month ago. I am now a proud wearer of the Superman II Maxidial, full of heritage and personal meaning. Best regards, TS
As youtube video goes, you don't get any better production value than this. It's so pleasing to my ears and eyes, I watched the whole 19 minutes even when I'm not interested in the watch.
I've gone through many horology channels and your's is by far the best. Love the wry humour mixed with, matter of fact style and knowledge. Just pre-ordered a Yema Flygraf thanks to this video. I never would have known about Yema ordinarily. Keep up the great work.
So happy to hear that, congrats! Enjoy your 63, it's such a gorgeous watch, thank you for sharing that, I always love hearing from happy fellow owners. Best regards, TGV
I don't really share your love for the flygraf but I really like the new Navygraf the only thing I can't get over is the 19mm lug width and the pin and collar bracelet. As always thank you for showing us great companys with a passion for their products and their costumers.
After watching your review I took the plunge and bought the m2 version. Just a beautiful all round classy watch. A pleasure to watch your channel TGV. Keep up the great work.
TGV, I have the utmost respect for the research and time you put in the crafting of these videos. It’s almost like you’re the one that made each individual watch that you speak about. It’s getting me more and more fascinated in the study of horology beyond watches. Please do not stop making these! (even if I can’t afford these watches, it’s still fascinating to learn about the history and what goes into the making of them.)
Absolutely beautiful piece. Love these details on the dial and how good the printing looks, even when magnified. This looks like a watch I would pay double of what they are asking for. And the video was a treat of it's own again. The intros, the reviews, the watches, the whole approach to this great hobby and always the explanation of the historical context. No other watch channel on YT has the class of this one. Thank you for the high quality content, TGV, best wishes from Germany
I bought a Superman (I got the maxi dial version, love the larger indices) after your 1st review. It’s easily my most worn watch. A perfect daily piece for what I do. Thanks.
I just purchased a Yema flygraf for myself! The price with an in-house movement had got me sold! will be shipped out end of July Thank you TGV from Australia!
I've had this exact version of the Flygraf for a couple of days now and love it, I also have the Superman Heritage. Straps are not a problem as I got 2 extra leather straps for the Superman and they fit the Flygraf as both have 19mm lugs. Great review by the way.
@@theurbangentry TGV is also the name of the french high speed train. BTW, YEMA Was my very first watch when I was a kid, I was ten years old when my father bought me one. Great video. You do a great job all around.
Awesome intro. I love the thick brushing on this watch. The brushing also matches the look of the dial. In a 42 MM or a 44 MM would have been perfect. But I say that about every watch. Great video. Thanks TGV. SEIKO IS KING !!!
Wow, TGV, your timing could not be more apt. I have spent the last week scratching my head about adding a Military Pilot watch to my collection, looking at classics from Smiths, CWC, Laco Fliegers and Christopher Ward's Sandhurst and Cranwell and then BOOM, you do a fab video on this amazing looking time piece from Yema and I find myself ditching the competition and pre-ordering it before you can say Fly!
I must say the following: without a doubt TGV has the best reviews bar none. He goes deep into the history and other details of the watch being reviewed all with a wonderful voice and a touch of class. TGV you should write a book on watches and do the Audible version as well. Who knows I can totally see TGV narrating books as well.
Hello, this is the first time i let a comment on your channel, but i follow your videos since 2 years now. I just want to say THANK YOU. We share the taste for beatifull things, and propriety. And mostly, you give me the will to start my youtube channel about watches, and now it start to grow little by little. One more time, thank you, and sorry for my bad english. Kisses for Hugo Carlo
I bought the bronze 1948 edition with a Gray dial. After he did a review on that 1 and just like this it made me want to buy it I just love the watch watch and the idea of the bronze I had never seen before and So far I haven't seen any patina but but I hear if you want to clean it off then you can very easily. I'm now very fond of their watches and just made a purchase of one of their racing watches just yesterday
beautiful pilots watch! great review TGV! I dunno if its enough to get my stowa off my wrist which basically dominates my collection because well....LOVE.
Thank you so much for this video. I absolutely always look forward to your videos. This is exactly what I have been looking for in my next purchase. I love the the style and will be purchasing one tonight, especially after your review. Thank you again. You are truly a gentleman.
Wow, I get what you mean when you said it punches well above its weight. I started this video thinking I wouldn't even be able to consider purchasing it. That was an awesome intro too.
YEMA, a GREAT watch which I had one back in the 80s and gave it to one of my younger cousins in Italy many summers ago and yes, he still has it and has passed it on to his son, I have now purchased another YEMA the Landgraf, I know it's a quartz movement but yet its striking square shape is what caught my eye, a square-shaped watch is not something you see every day, and I got it at such a ridiculous price that I just had to pull the proverbial trigger LOL.
It doesnt matter where you learn a skill.. there is no "to good for an amateur" xD.. did you see what other youtuber can do with vfx .. all self taught :) @tgv .. keep it on ! :)
@@budgetwatchateer6784 An old Civil War veteran taught me the skills I needed to become an accomplished video and sound engineer, it actually pays the electric bill.
What a spectacular timepiece! Thank you so much for reviewing this exquisite watch: I've always wanted to add a pilot to my (small) collection and the Yema has just jumped at the top of the list: it has a nicely polished design and great personality. And what should I say about the video? Stunning as usual! Great editing: among other things, I particularly enjoyed the transition you used to showcase the lume: it put a geeky smile on my face! :) Your passion and attention to detail always shine through and make your reviews the absolute best! Looking forward to the next one. Ciao!
Good evening TGV, great intro you did! Outstanding as always. As far as I can tell, Yema is delivering outstanding quality. Really like the history behind the brand. Great you cover their watches! Have a good evening!
Love your style my man. Not only great content but probably the best optically AND sonically produced reviews I have seen. I thank you for your commitment, time and effort in production of your reviews. I think Yema made the best decision possible accommodating your review. This is a new brand to me and one I will keep on my radar. Great work, thank you!
Reminds me of a Hanhart Pioneer One, albeit at almost half the price and with a more modern design. I think this gives some of the Stowa and Archimede fliegers a run for their money. The inhouse movement is like a knockout blow when comparing.
Thanks for bringing this one to light. Such a clean and functional look. Loved seeing the Tony Holmes "Dogfight" book in the B roll footage. Just pulled it off my shelf and will be giving it a re-read this evening. Rare photos galore! Like the color(!) Spitfire and Corsair et al on p. 282.
Love the video TGV!!! I’m struggling with pilot watches as there too big for me!! Even the 39, it’s the size of the dial!!! Absolutely love the design! YEMA ARE ON FIRE!
Honestly, this should be fine for you, I saw your excellent collection video, you could deffo pull this off. After all, pilot watch are supposed to be big!!! Thank you my friend, have a great rest of the weekend. Best regards, TGV
Gorgeous! I’m in! This watch provides a level of design elegance not often seen in the tool watch space, especially at this price point. I’m wearing the Damasko DA36. I love the clean look, the legibility, and the case design. The Yema, while not having the same technical innovations as the Damasko (crown system, anti-shock/ mag cage), offers a superior design aesthetic! It’s also close to half the price! Bravo!
TGV, another fantastic video highlighting the strength of Yema at a very crowded price point. Editing superb as usual! Loving the Flygraf! Decisions, decisions, decisions!
Amazing. I just stumbled across the Flygraf on their website last night, and woke to find your review this morning. I'm going to struggle to resist to preorder this.
Absolutely love this watch, if I didn't have my eyes on a Navygraf Marine Nationale GMT I would be going for this one. Love the brushed metal and complimentary dial.
I had 100 off discount code waiting for the perfect watch and it came too soon! The grey is phenomenal with the leather canvas at no extra charge! Crazy value for money!
I am extremely smitten with the Yema Navygraf. It's just slightly out of my comfortability, as most of my spare pennies go on travel. I hope maybe one day. This one looks a very nice part of the Yema family (not typically a number dial fan, although as I get older im warming to the idea). As always thanks for the video sir 👍
So glad to hear you are a fellow Yema owner, LOVE the Navygraf, which model did you get? I can't get enough of my Superman, I am even considering the bronze one. I really shouldn't LOL/ Anyways, thank you for the kind words regarding the video, enjoy your Navygraf and have a great rest of the weekend. Best regards, TGV
The Urban Gentry this will be my first Yema and am dying to see this beauty. This review will be watched over and over again until I receive my Pilot. Thanks for the review. Glad to see you’re still getting after it. I too have my eye on the bronze Superman, especially that merlot bezel; an absolute original look. I suspect after a week of wear with the Flygraf I’ll pull the trigger on that Superman Bronze. Thanks again gents!
Always a pleasure to receive awesome contact from you my friend hope all is well I’ve enjoyed seeing you go through your ups and downs on this channel and let me tell you brother you motivate me to keep pushing the OG‘s know what I’m talking about when you were going through problems with your health and the channel and balancing both at the same time That takes true character or in your words pure class so to you my friend I say onward and upwards👍
I am speechless. It is for true OGs like you that I make videos for. Thank you so much for taking the time you share that, you are a true gent and you made my evening. O&U!!!! Have a wonderful rest of the weekend. Best regards TGV
No need to be surprise about the price, I just got my Glycine airman GMT which I pay around $320.00 which I think is the same or even better (talking about quality). So is Glycine can do it, Yema better do it to if they want to stay in business. My humble opinion. EXELENTE VIDEO DARLING.
The super legible dial and two tone case polished and brushed it looks amazing i love 24 hour on a watch . I reckon the dial to g shocks way to much going on for me . I wanna look down see numbers and hands. Deff gonna consider this time piece. I guess the fact i never heard of yema makes me a little uneasy but then again im new to the watch game great vid keep them coming your friend in upstate NY -Dan
A very handsome watch with a more than reasonable price tag considering it has an in-house movement. It seems the M2 version even has the newer in-house movement and is sold for the same price. I hardly knew about Yema before today. Thanks for the review and the intro.
Lol. I spent months sending messages to you about Yema Superman refs last year. Glad to see you’ve finally embraced them. I thought the size and style of the Superman would be perfect for you.
Ordered a lorier Neptune thanks to your channel as my first watch, thanks U G for all the excellent content, you and fortnine are the best channels available
Quite interesting. Design seems very straightforward yet details like contrasting polished and brushed surfaces elevate it beyond the prosaic. Again your intro extremely entertaining. Like the price on this one. Agree it's a little tall.
Nice review. I usually find pilot style watches super boring, but this is maybe the first that has enough stylish design touches and textures to make it interesting and attractive. Yema's releases have been catching my eye, I haven't found one that I can justify adding to my collection just yet, but with their unique designs, nice quality and very reasonable prices I think it's only a matter of time!
Hi TGV, as you know I have been catching up on the back catalog. Yema is definitely on the list now. Lol. I said that before on the bronze, but this just cements it. Thanks again.
Dear TGV i have to say, watching your channel turns into a pricey hobby! You have a talent of finding watches that i really like! While you haven't - at least to my knowledge - already discovered the Mecchaniche Veneziane microbrand, this Yema is very likely to become a new part of my collection. After several other watches you discussed i would really be happy to see more Rolex, Patek or Hublot films on your channel as these brands do not touch my heart at all, saveing me a lot of money! 😂 Nice watch though!
@TGV- Thank you so much for all of your sharing knowledge about watches, always honest and fairness, I do owned a few of the watches that you reviewed, hence I know you spoke the true. Kudos !! Now back to Yema Flygraf, the reason that it's looks tall because the bezel edge is very flat and straight up, gives it sharp & tall profile. In my collection included a Superman Heritage Blue 39 and the bezel side has the serrations that breaks up the tall profile, otherwise it would be tall as well with the high dome sapphire crystal. Just to share my own opinion of this beautiful Flygraf. Thank again for all your videos, I really enjoyed it !!

Intro was incredible
As youtube video goes, you don't get any better production value than this. It's so pleasing to my ears and eyes, I watched the whole 19 minutes even when I'm not interested in the watch.
Feels great to have a national brand being reviewed by TGV,
Greetings from France !
Thank you :D
Vive la France!
Best regards,
TGV
Bought this watch because of your review, 6 months later and I'm still in love! Got the steel braclet when it came out too, also great
That watch is the nicest pilots watch I have ever seen, glad somebody steps outside the box when they designed this watch, love the grain dial
I've gone through many horology channels and your's is by far the best. Love the wry humour mixed with, matter of fact style and knowledge. Just pre-ordered a Yema Flygraf thanks to this video. I never would have known about Yema ordinarily. Keep up the great work.
I've just received my superman Heritage 63 39mm limited edition.
I looked into Yema because of the Urban Gentry, very glad I did thank you.
So happy to hear that, congrats!
Enjoy your 63, it's such a gorgeous watch, thank you for sharing that, I always love hearing from happy fellow owners.

Love your reviews with incorporating the heritage and history of the brand makes the watches more appealing
definitely
This is known as “advertising”
I just purchased a Yema flygraf for myself! The price with an in-house movement had got me sold! will be shipped out end of July Thank you TGV from Australia!
How's the watch & how was the purchase experience? - From another Aussie interested in the watch./
I've had this exact version of the Flygraf for a couple of days now and love it, I also have the Superman Heritage. Straps are not a problem as I got 2 extra leather straps for the Superman and they fit the Flygraf as both have 19mm lugs. Great review by the way.
Your video production quality is on another level. You could make essentially any watch look like a must-buy to your viewers. Nice job Tristano!
I fell in love with Yema because of your review of the Superman Heritage. I have a Superman Heritage Blue on my wrist, and now I need a Flygraf.
Holy Cow! These intros are some heavyweight masterpieces of editing 😨💪
Just preordered. Always wanted a pilots watch, was waiting for the right piece. This one blew me away.
Retro and vintage are the rage in watches now and this video reminds me of your older reviews - well done and thank you.
Sick intro. The watch is lovely too. Glad to see your back to your best. 👍🏻🔥👍🏻
Thank you so much :D
That really means a lot to me.

I have 2 Yema divers. Awesome watches. Great lume. Amazed this flieger has a 300m water resistance but then again it's a Yema. 💣💥

I thank you for your commitment, time and effort in production of your reviews. I think Yema made the best decision possible accommodating your review. This is a new brand to me and one I will keep on my radar. Great work, thank you!

The Urban Gentry Thank you! Yes I think your absolutely right! Think I could pull this off!!!!!
Your intros are something else TGV 😎🔥
I so nearly pulled the trigger on a Yema this week but that will have to wait.
Another sick intro, TGV 👌🏻 You’re on fire with them.
This is a bit like my Oris pilot and a Nautilus had a love child. I like it.
You sold me on this Yema I really admire the French from watches to cars they definitely have their own flair.
Gorgeous! I’m in!
This watch provides a level of design elegance not often seen in the tool watch space, especially at this price point. I’m wearing the Damasko DA36.

Amazing. I just stumbled across the Flygraf on their website last night, and woke to find your review this morning. I'm going to struggle to resist to preorder this.
Always a pleasure to watch your productions, what an intro. Also Yema is top shelf.
Absolutely love this watch, if I didn't have my eyes on a Navygraf Marine Nationale GMT I would be going for this one. Love the brushed metal and complimentary dial.
TGV, your intros are so over the top sometimes. I love it
As usual, Thank you TGV for introducing me to this brand and its history. Learned something new and indeed, a future classic watch!
Such a beautiful piece. I may have to add it to the list of watches I'd like to have.
I had 100 off discount code waiting for the perfect watch and it came too soon! The grey is phenomenal with the leather canvas at no extra charge! Crazy value for money!
I am extremely smitten with the Yema Navygraf. It's just slightly out of my comfortability, as most of my spare pennies go on travel. I hope maybe one day. This one looks a very nice part of the Yema family (not typically a number dial fan, although as I get older im warming to the idea). As always thanks for the video sir 👍
So glad to hear you are a fellow Yema owner, LOVE the Navygraf, which model did you get?
I can't get enough of my Superman, I am even considering the bronze one. I really shouldn't LOL/
Anyways, thank you for the kind words regarding the video, enjoy your Navygraf and have a great rest of the weekend.

The Urban Gentry this will be my first Yema and am dying to see this beauty. This review will be watched over and over again until I receive my Pilot. Thanks for the review. Glad to see you’re still getting after it. I too have my eye on the bronze Superman, especially that merlot bezel; an absolute original look. I suspect after a week of wear with the Flygraf I’ll pull the trigger on that Superman Bronze.
Thanks again gents!
This is your best intro yet imo
Thank you so much :D

Not a huge pilot watch fan, but I understand their purpose/heritage, and the Yema is one of the more tastefully done.
TGV with these fire intros lately! I almost dropped my protein shake with the beat drop!
Another great french watch... another great video. Got in love also with le Forban Malouine after watching your video... maybe I'll buy both!
there's something about that round boxy case with the flat crystal flushed, so charming.
No need to be surprise about the price, I just got my Glycine airman GMT which I pay around $320.00 which I think is the same or even better (talking about quality). So is Glycine can do it, Yema better do it to if they want to stay in business. My humble opinion. EXELENTE VIDEO DARLING.
Time to shop Yema. Thank you Sir.
The super legible dial and two tone case polished and brushed it looks amazing i love 24 hour on a watch . I reckon the dial to g shocks way to much going on for me . I wanna look down see numbers and hands. Deff gonna consider this time piece. I guess the fact i never heard of yema makes me a little uneasy but then again im new to the watch game great vid keep them coming your friend in upstate NY -Dan
What a beautiful watch! elegant yet Functional,with an amazing heritage.
A very handsome watch with a more than reasonable price tag considering it has an in-house movement. It seems the M2 version even has the newer in-house movement and is sold for the same price. I hardly knew about Yema before today. Thanks for the review and the intro.
When the pandemic hits Hollywood shuts down........and TGV steps up, content and quality is amazing
Absolutely stunning watch and video quality. Blown away. The history is extremely intriguing as well.
Thank you for introducing me to this brand. This exceptional timepiece is on my shortlist for sure. A true enthusiast piece.
Lol. I spent months sending messages to you about Yema Superman refs last year. Glad to see you’ve finally embraced them. I thought the size and style of the Superman would be perfect for you.
Ordered a lorier Neptune thanks to your channel as my first watch, thanks U G for all the excellent content, you and fortnine are the best channels available
So pleased to hear, enjoy and wear it with pride! That remind me, I must wear my Neppy tomorrow!!!
Thank you :D
Best regards,
TGV
The best review of flygraph as always! Well done. Just ordered.
I was debating on a purge then a single purchase. This may be on the list. Thank you for a beautifully done video and introduction.
Man, I was bouncing during that intro!! I really need to get my hands on at least one their models! Cheers!
JC!!!! :D
Thank you brother. O&U!
Best regards,
TGV
Quite interesting. Design seems very straightforward yet details like contrasting polished and brushed surfaces elevate it beyond the prosaic. Again your intro extremely entertaining. Like the price on this one. Agree it's a little tall.
Good to see the French pilots flying over the Seine... using the correct smoke colours ;-)
Oh I say, that is a pretty watch, ding dong.
The kippers knickers, the muts nuts.
Nice review, loving the intro.
Best intro yet! This should be used as every intro😎
Nice review. I usually find pilot style watches super boring, but this is maybe the first that has enough stylish design touches and textures to make it interesting and attractive. Yema's releases have been catching my eye, I haven't found one that I can justify adding to my collection just yet, but with their unique designs, nice quality and very reasonable prices I think it's only a matter of time!
Just bought it because the REVIEW SOLD IT! Thanks so much for the EXCELLENT CONTENT.
CRPM LLC just wondering if you’ve received it yet, I want to order before the discount expires but I want to hear a few more reviews...you satisfied?
Just ordered the Flygraf! Thanks for the review!!!
That intro makes me want this more now! Great review thank you.
Hi TGV, as you know I have been catching up on the back catalog. Yema is definitely on the list now. Lol. I said that before on the bronze, but this just cements it. Thanks again.
That opening sequence was just amazing 👏
Impossible not to enjoy your videos 👏👏
I'd missed this one, splendid review. Actually helped me make up my mind between Archimede, Stowa and this Yema. It'll be here on Friday. :)
Dear TGV i have to say, watching your channel turns into a pricey hobby! You have a talent of finding watches that i really like! While you haven't - at least to my knowledge - already discovered the Mecchaniche Veneziane microbrand, this Yema is very likely to become a new part of my collection.
After several other watches you discussed i would really be happy to see more Rolex, Patek or Hublot films on your channel as these brands do not touch my heart at all, saveing me a lot of money! 😂
Nice watch though!
@TGV- Thank you so much for all of your sharing knowledge about watches, always honest and fairness, I do owned a few of the watches that you reviewed, hence I know you spoke the true. Kudos !!
Now back to Yema Flygraf, the reason that it's looks tall because the bezel edge is very flat and straight up, gives it sharp & tall profile.
In my collection included a Superman Heritage Blue 39 and the bezel side has the serrations that breaks up the tall profile, otherwise it would be tall as well with the high dome sapphire crystal. Just to share my own opinion of this beautiful Flygraf.
Thank again for all your videos, I really enjoyed it !!
