WHAT WE LOVE:

The Yema Superman 500 YSUP22B41 carries forward the heritage of a 1960s French classic, reengineered for modern expectations without losing the charm that made the original famous. Introduced in 2022, this reference takes the beloved Superman silhouette and upgrades it across the board most notably with a new 500m water resistance rating and refinements to both build and finishing.

True to form, the Superman 500 keeps the defining elements of the original: a locking bezel system at 3 oclock (unique to Yema), a sharply angled 39mm stainless steel case, and a high-domed sapphire crystal that gives a vintage feel without sacrificing durability. The matte black dial is clean and highly legible, with oversized markers filled with Super-LumiNova and a distinctive seconds hand featuring the signature shovel tip.

What makes this model special is how well it balances its tool-watch nature with thoughtful upgrades including a redesigned crown and improved case architecture to better support its 500-meter depth rating.

WHAT’S INSIDE:

Powering the Superman 500 is the YEMA2000, an in-house automatic movement developed and assembled in France. It offers 42 hours of power reserve, beats at 28,800 bph, and features hacking seconds and hand-winding capabilities offering solid mechanical performance in a distinctive French-made package.
