Wristmaster Adventurer

Inspiring from the emblematic 1960's Wristmaster dress watches, the new Wristmaster Adventurer is instantly recognizable by its unique 37mm neo-vintage brushed steel case, the raised silver indices and the hesalite domed crystal, delivering a large dial opening yet warmer, vintage feel. Presence on the wrist is ensured thanks to the 48mm lug-to-lug and 12mm thickness, making this dress watch perfect for all wrist sizes. Equipped with our In-house Caliber YEMA2000, the new Wristmaster Adventurer will be available in two distinct colour dials.

Wristmaster Traveller

Yema’s Managing Director and Head of Design, Christopher Bôle has worked on an unprecedented, contemporary version named Wristmaster Traveller.

"I drew inspiration from two distinct YEMA vintage models dating from the 1960’s (for the octagonal case) and the 1980’s (for the bezel). My original idea was to design a sporty watch with an elegant design for daily use. Each aspect of the Wristmaster Traveller is fine-tuned and executed with the greatest attention to detail."
