Yema Skin Diver Slim CMM.20 Limited Edition

Supercharged with a micro-rotor Manufacture caliber, the Skin Diver Slim CMM.20 Limited Edition is the modern interpretation of the iconic skin divers released by YEMA in the 1960’s. Rugged, yet stylish.

This new model limited with 500 timepieces will be available in pre-order from June 18, 2024 on yema.com with a delivery planned in September 2024.

Ultra Legible Skin Diver Dial

The complex dial layout provides an excellent legibility by showcasing triangular-shaped hour markers complete with Arabic numerals. The oversized applied markers extend into the center of the dial and are matched with a lollipop for the seconds. All the elements are generously filled with vintage-inspired, lime-coloured Super-LumiNova and outlined in polished steel.

The dial base has a dark grey surface, reinforcing the old-school look, and contributing to accentuate the play of light of the polished steel raised markers and hands against the dark dial.

“Faded Ghost” Sapphire Bezel

The rotating bezel stands out for its vintage-inspired “faded ghost” look. It is entirely made of sapphire and is in perfect harmony with the dark grey dial and the brushed finish of the case. This redesigned bezel features a unidirectional rotation, a 0-60 scale, and a luminescent marker at 12 o’clock treated in Grade A Super-LumiNova, which constitute essential features for professional diving watches.

Classic Skin Diver Steel Case

Conceived as a professional dive watch, the 39mm 316L stainless steel case (47mm lug-to-lug) stands out with its 20mm curved lugs and brushed finishes in contrast with the polished bevels.

Instantly recognizable by its unguarded crowns and with a contained thickness of just 10mm, the steel case has been slimmed down to accommodate our CMM.20 micro-rotor caliber. The Skin Diver Slim offers an elegant and refined case design while preserving all the advantages and functions of modern mechanical dive watches.

000/500 Limited Edition Sapphire Exhibition Case-back

Luxury watches can inspire for a variety of reasons. It’s not only the design and the style of the timepiece but also the technical aspects of a fine timepiece that can really blow watch enthusiasts away. The sapphire exhibition case-back is an elegant feature for those who enjoy taking a look at the inner workings of their mechanical timepieces, in this case it allows wearers to catch a glimpse into the inner intricacies of the Manufacture micro-rotor caliber CMM.20, a rare caliber worthy of showcasing.

Each case-back is engraved with a unique serial number, also displayed on the 5-year warranty card, and the corresponding Limited Edition number out of a total of 500 timepieces.

Double Dome Sapphire Crystal

The Skin Diver Slim features a 2.00 mm thick double-dome sapphire crystal, offering better readability, increased resistance and a resolutely vintage look and feel.

New Scales Slim Bracelet

The iconic 1960s YEMA Scales bracelet has been slimmed down by 0.40mm so as to harmoniously integrate with the Skin Diver Slim thin case.

This new Scales Slim bracelet gradually tapers from 4mm at the buckle and naturally adapts to each wrist’s shape. It features a fully brushed finish, providing an elegant visual continuity with the brushed steel case.
