From military-adjacent we are going back to official military, with the latest offerings from YEMA, official watch of the French navy (Marine nationale) and the French Air Force.

This new Navygraf Marine Nationale comes in a 39mm brushed stainless steel case (thickness of 11mm) and is water resistant to 300m.

There are two colour options for the sapphire bezel – blue or white. The dial remains blue for both these options, and the markers and Navygraf hands are white. The Central seconds hand and the Navygraf text on the dial are both yellow. Both markers and the hands have Super-LumiNova.

Through the open case back can be seen the automatic in-house Calibre Morteau 10 which has been galvanised. It beats at 28,800 VPH and has a power reserve of 70 hours.

Awarded the French Watch of the Year 2024 by the Union de la Bijouterie Horlogerie (UBH), the YEMA Navygraf Marine Nationale CMM.10 comes on either a stainless steel bracelet or a more traditional ‘parachute’ strap (but with stainless steel hardware rather than ‘bracelet style’) with Marine nationale markings.

It will be shipped from October 2024 and can be acquired directly from YEMA at this link.
