In the early 1960's, YEMA started to work on a professional dive watch project designed for the general public. In 1963 YEMA proudly launched the very first 990 feet water resistant non-military dive watch, something revolutionary at that time, hence the nickname Superman.
This Superman Heritage 63 Limited Edition pays tribute to the historic model by recreating the original design and the professional diving features which have nowadays become essential on most dive watches. The screw-down crown, the crown guards and YEMA's proprietary bezel-lock designed as a triple safety when underwater, made of the Superman an unique diver back in the 1960's.
In line with YEMA's Heritage collection spirit, this reissue features a sapphire bezel reminiscent of the vintage acrylic / bakelite ones, as well as the iconic “shovel” seconds hand of the Superman.

I think any significant watch purchase like that will mean more to you if you wait and do it the right way. At the same time it is easy to be tempted by awesome pieces such as this!

I know. I'm biding my time with it. Maybe because I keep getting distracted with awesome watch releases!Split-Time wrote:I think any significant watch purchase like that will mean more to you if you wait and do it the right way.
