Yema is one of France's most enduring independent watch manufacturers, founded in Besançon in 1948. The brand built its reputation through functional, tool-oriented watchmaking, supplying watches to the French army and space programme, and producing dive watches that competed directly with the Swiss market at a fraction of the price. Today, Yema continues to manufacture in-house in Morteau, one of the few remaining French manufacturers to do so, with movements developed and produced on French soil.
At WATCHOYSTER, we carry a selection of certified pre-owned Yema watches inspected in Switzerland. Every piece has been physically examined by our in-house certified watchmaker, verified against The Watch Register, and documented before listing. What you see reflects the actual condition of the watch, with no exceptions.
Yema occupies a specific and increasingly respected position in the collector market, genuinely independent manufacture-level production with strong historical references and a growing following among buyers who prioritize substance over branding. Vintage Yema pieces, particularly Sous-Marine and Superman references, attract consistent collector interest. Buying a certified second-hand Yema from a verified dealer in Switzerland means every piece has been assessed for movement condition, case integrity and dial originality before listing. Our 12-month warranty applies to every piece in our catalogue, and our 14-day return policy covers any case where the watch does not correspond to its description.
All Yema watches in our catalogue are available for immediate purchase with worldwide insured delivery. Standard delivery across Switzerland takes 2 to 3 business days. For clients who prefer a personal handover, our appointment-only lounge in the Geneva Free Zone is available by prior arrangement.
Financing is available on selected pre-owned Yema references for clients based in Switzerland, with terms from 3 to 24 months, no interest and no administrative fees. The full purchase price is divided into equal monthly instalments, with a minimum first payment of 25%. A decision takes under three minutes at checkout, with no documentation required beyond standard order information.
