Yema Watches Review: Yachtingraf Heritage

Updated: July 16, 2020

Vintage is apparently the go-to theme across the entire watch spectrum these days. French brand Yema Watches is no different. Although looking at their current all-retro lineup it appears less as if they’re capitalizing on a trend and more as if they haven’t updated their designs in 50 years.

Founded in 1948, French watchmaker Henry Louis Belmont built Yema over the next several decades by focusing on the action sports of the day, namely diving, yachting, and racing. The Yema Superman dive watch, launched in 1963, was water resistant to 300 meters and subsequently issued to pilots in the French Air Force. Although, I’m not sure it was a ringing endorsement of French airplanes to issue dive watches to pilots. Nevertheless, Yema went on to produce the first French watch that made it to space and a watch that accompanied adventurer Jean-Louis Etienne on his solo journey to the North Pole.

Over the past 70 years, ownership of Yema shifted hands several times, including being owned by Seiko from 1988 through 2004. The company was eventually acquired by its current parents, Montres Ambre, a French watchmaking and jewelry company.

Yema’s current lineup is decidedly retro, and their Superman model is getting rave reviews from watch sites and collectors alike. But I’m over divers and their Yachtingraf model caught my eye several months ago. The colors drew me to the piece like a kid to rainbow ice cream, especially the ways they incorporated red, white, and blue into the chronograph subdials. It’s a shockingly colorful watch without being cartoony, and the colors do add some actual utility (which would help me justify the purchase to the wife, right..?). I don’t sail nor do I own a yacht, but I did watch the last America’s Cup, so that should qualify me for this purchase, right?

A pre-holiday deal offered 15% off (over the standard 10% off) and an extra leather strap (also a standard offer), while my annoying chats over several days with their friendly sales team prodded them to throw in a free hat too. Probably just to get me to leave them alone.

So what’s the verdict? Let’s sail in. 🙂

First Impressions:

I’ll have to admit, as soon as I zipped open the faux leather case, I was disappointed. With nearly every watch I’ve lusted over on my giant computer screen many just fall flat when I see them in person. I had the same experience seeing Farer’s chronographs in person for the first time. Mostly it’s the way they seem so much smaller in real life once I strap them to my 7.9” wrist, but it’s also the case proportions, and the Yema’s seemed off, especially the height of the case.

Second was the dial. On first look (and actual size), it was really, really busy. And the details were tiny. Every marking and sub-second indicator was crisp and sharp, but there were a ton of them, especially around the perimeter of the dial.

The most striking proportional detail of the Yachtingraf’s polished steel case is the diameter-to-height ratio. I’m going to throw “D2H” out there as a new way to gauge the height-width proportions of a watch. For the Yema Yachtingraf, it’s 39 mm wide (same as the vintage model) by 15.35 mm tall (vintage was 14 mm), meaning it has a D2H of 2.54mm and looks like a damn cupcake from the side. It’s seriously tall for its diameter. Very tall. From the side, it’s tallness is also accentuated by what looks to be a six-layer sandwich, from the caseback to the three-layered polishing on the midcase, to the bezel and the sapphire.

The dial details (what you immediately see) defined my first impressions both good and bad. The Yema Yachtingraf is colorful for sure and the three subdials seem to all be different diameters (although I think only one is larger), but it works. There are blue and red stripes with pie slices and crosses all on a matte black background. It all seems to work with a great nautical flair. For the logo, Yema chose to use their vintage curvy Y instead of their current angular version, keeping with the retro vibe.

montre yema yachtingraf

In yachting (AKA sailboat racing) the judge sounds a horn 10 minutes before the start of a race. Since sailboats can’t all just line up at the starting line, it’s a running start, meaning all boats are moving. It takes some strategy and good timing to hit the starting line just after the actual race starts otherwise your boat has to turn around and start again. So when sailors hear the 10 minute horn, they click their regatta timers for the countdown to the start. On the Yema Yachtingraf Heritage, this colorful subdial and it’s double-tipped hand counts from 0 to 10 in one direction (from 12 o’clock) or from 15 to 0 (from 6 o’clock). One tip is straight while the other has an open circle on it to help you differentiate.

In vintage fashion, the 60-minute bezel is super-thin and draws the eye to the dial. It appears to be aluminum or another type metal, with a single lume pip at zero. But it’s bi-directional and does not click. I’ve never had nor heard of a watch where the bezel didn’t click and it took me off guard when I first gave it a spin. It’s tight and I can’t imagine it ever moving around on its own or even from slight bumps. But if I were crashing through the waves on a yacht race around the world, I’d probably not rely on it to stay put. Of course, for my typical needs (timing veggies in the oven) it works just fine.

Well that’s damn lame. Especially for a watch totally reliant on ”Heritage.” I’ll have to admit, that explanation made me feel stupid, but buyer beware, right? (Note that vintage Yachtingraf models from the 60’s do not have inner bezel markings, so not sure why they felt the need to add them.)

The Movement:

Although most current Yema models have quartz movements, each line seems to have a Heritage automatic model packing an ETA movement. For the Yachtingraf, it’s the ETA Valjoux 7753. It hacks and the chrono flies back nicely, and it beats at 28,800 bph. It’s the same movement used by Hamilton, Tissot, Longines, Victorinox, and others, but the Yema Yachtingraf is at the top end of this movement’s price spectrum.

If you’ve read about this workhorse chrono movement, you’ve come across mentions of its noise. Let me tell you, this thing is noisy. Like LOL loud. One of the first times I set it down on my desk, it sounded like that big rock chasing Indiana Jones in that cave. OK, it wasn’t that loud, but it was loud enough to shock me. I never hear it when it’s on my wrist, but set it down in just the right way and it’s loud.

The Straps:

The Verdict:

I’ve been pulled pretty deep into the watch world over the past year or so. And if you’re like me, you’re bound to have a catch-and-release every so often. This feels like one of those. It’s a great looking watch, minus the tallness, and the colors and retro vibe really sing to me. But something about it just doesn’t feel right. I’ve had other pieces where I didn’t initially like them but they grew on me, so I’ll give it another month or so. But right now, I’m not so sure it’s a keeper.

  • Awesome retro styling, nearly identical to the vintage models.
  • Great colorway with a very unique dial.
  • It’s French, or rather, not Swiss, and that’s somewhat novel.
  • Nice straps.
  • Case is very tall.
  • Tight crown guards make it tough to work crown.
  • Inner bezel markings added just for show.
  • Non-clicking, bi-directional bezel.
  • Noisy movement rotor.
  • Automatics are expensive.

Would I buy it again? Probably not, but would instead buy one of their cheaper (and similar) quartz models. Check out all the Yema Yatchingraf models here – cool to see what’s available across the price spectrum.

Very nice review.

I can’t be the only person who wishes all watch reviews stated the wrist size of the reviewer next to their byline. I’m having a hard time remembering them all!

– Calamitus (6.75″)

Great review. I always wondered why we don’t see more of these. Now I know why.

Thanks @Calamitus and @Greg! Glad you liked the review. 🙂

On wrist size, @Calamitus, yeah, that’s a good point. I know my wrist is on the large size, but it’s also funny for me to see photos where a 40mm watch covers a reviewers entire wrist width. On the other hand, when I wear something smaller than 38mm, it feels like a bracelet instead of a watch…

@Greg, not sure why there aren’t any reviews of the Yema Yachtingrafs out there, but that’s what prompted me to write this one. It’s always helpful to me to read multiple reviews before I consider a piece, so part of my frustration was in buying this one fairly blind. Hope this helps some others make a choice either way.

Nice review. I have an old Yema FR029 that I love, and recently bought a Yema Spacegraf GMT. When it arrived, I was disappointed in how diminutive it looked on wrist in comparision to the site’s photos. Anyhow, after swapping on a Perlon strap, I’ve come to like wearing the watch. The long, vampire fang lugs have grown on me. I’m tempted to get a Superman for the name alone. 🙂 If only the diameter of the case grew by a few millimeters.

Interesting point about the height. Yema website says the Yachtingraf Heritage is 1.35mm taller than the Superman Heritage (15.35mm vs 14mm). They look like they’re using the same case though.

I was also concerned about the height of the Superman, as it’s already taller than a Seiko SKX.

Have you tried on the Superman Heritage by any chance?

Thanks and great review!

Hey @JIN – no, I didn’t try the Superman. I love the look of that piece, too, but just don’t think these live up to the price tag.

Hi Jason, the inner bezel markings are for a type of slide-rule. I don’t know exactly how it works but I believe “M” stands for moyenne, which is French for average. I guess the slide rule allowed for the calculation of average speed? It has been copied from the vintage Yema FlyGraf. It is supposed to have a corresponding outer bezel – which they haven’t included on the new heritage models… Google some images of vintage flygrafs and you will see what I mean. Cheers, Tim

Sorry for the repeat post. I didn’t think the first one worked 🙂

The inner bezel markings are one half of a slide rule. It has been copied from a vintage Flygraf model. They haven’t put the correct corresponding bezel insert on the rotating part to actually be able to use it though…

Hey @Tim, thanks for the comment. I thought the markings were functional as well, but as I said in the review, I emailed them and their answer was basically that they’re just there for show. Disappointing, and I really wanted them to mean something, but I guess not. 🙁

Regatta Yachttimers

An overview of sailing regatta watches.

The only French brand in this regatta-yachttimer overview is Yema. Founded in 1948 in Besançon (Doubs) by Henry Louis Belmont, the company distinguished itself in the very beginning by creating the first automatic chronometers manufactured entirely in France. The brand became fairly popular in France in the 1960’s and 1970’s with both consumer and military sales, including the watches related to the French space missions!

On March 3, 1967  Henry L. Blum of Montres Yema S.A. filed a patent for a ‘Watch for Yachting and Underwater use’ . You can download the complete Swiss patent (CH 483.047) as a PDF here , or here if you prefer English (USA 3,427,800).

  Yema patent US3,427,800 filed by H.L. Blum.

This resulted in the introduction of the Yema Yachtingraf   in 1966. All together 6 different models (7 if you count type 6 in standard or jumbo case as two) of the Yachtingraf  were sold between 1966 and 1970. Type 1 (Valjoux 92), type 2 ( Valjoux 7733 or 7734) and type 3 (Valjoux 7734 with date) have a subdial counting the seconds at 9 o’clock, and an oversized 30 minutes subdial at 3 o’clock, divided into 6 differently coloured segments representing 5 minutes each.

Yema Yachtingraf, 3 versions, 3 different calibers.

Model: Yema Yachtingraf – type 1.

  • Reference: the first model, rare, two subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock.
  • Caliber: manual wound Valjoux 92 movement.
  • Case size: Ø 38 mm

  • Reference: two subdials, and a date window at 6 o’clock.
  • Caliber: manual wound Valjoux 7734 movement.

Type 4 and 5, the Yachtingraf Croisière models, have an extra third subdial at 6 o’clock with a 12 hour register. By means of a red cross over this subdial it counts double, up to 24 hours. Type 6 has an indicator disk underneath the dial, for an optimum countdown.

And the Yema Yachtingraf versions 4, 5 and 6.

Model: Yema Yachtingraf Croissière – type 4.

  • Reference: 92 001L. Silver subdial at 9 o’clock, third subdial at 6 o’clock,

  • Year: 1970.

The Yema Yachtingraf Régate was available in two different case sizes, the first one with the black logo at 6 o’clock measuring Ø 39 mm and with a tachymeter along the outer edge of the dial, and a second version with the blue logo at 6 o’clock measuring Ø 44 mm. The last one is also referred to as Régate – Jumbo.

How the countdown function works:

Definitely type 6 is the most interesting one. It has a 15 minutes register at 3 o’clock, and a smal indicator disk that rotates under a special cut-out in the dial. The indicator disk moves every 30 seconds, jumping half a minute further to the start of the race.

The Yema Yachtingraf Régate has the crown to set the time at 3 o’clock and two pushers for the countdown function. One pusher at 2 o’clock for start/stop, and one pusher at 4 o’clock for reset.

After a reset the countdown subdial shows 1-2-3-4-5 and red in the 6th small window. When the chronograph is activated at the first gunshot the countdown starts and the big white sweep hand is set in motion clockwise. After 30 seconds the indicator disk moves half a minute, and so it does again after 60 seconds, now showing 0-1-2-3-4. A slide bar shows the first minute in blue. After the first 5 minutes of the countdown, when the second gunshot is fired, the 6th window in the dial takes over the countdown: 5 more minutes to go.

Again one minute later, with another 4 more minutes to go, the first window is showing red. Three minutes later, only 1 more minute to go, and 4 windows showing red. Then, as the final gunshot sounds, all 5 windows are red and the 6th window shows 0. Off you go!

Variations:

The Yema Yachtingraf’s are unmistakable recognizable by their big colorful minutes countdown subdial, which is also well described in the patent listed above. And although they are not related to Yema in any way, several smaller watch brands have used the same subdial for a Yachting version of their watch. Probably with a license by Yema for the dial layout. The only exeption is the brand Le Jour, which was actually the North American rebranded distributer for Yema in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Here are some examples:

Branded Alsta Le Jour Yachtingraf , Le Jour Yachtingraf   (US version) and Thermidor De Luxe Yachtingraf :

Branded Puerto Azul (without it’s bezel),  Technos Sportsgraph  (with a Landeron 248 movement) and Relide Spacemaster :

Branded Yachting Chronograph  (Valjoux 7733),  Jaques-Droz and Gallet :

Branded Datzward Seamagnum (Valjoux 7730), Lider Yachtingraf   (Valjoux 7733) and La Martine   (Valjoux 7733):

Branded Lunich Watch (Valjoux 7733), Dichi Watch (Valjoux 7730) and Wingo :

x – x – x – x – x – x – x – x – x – x

In the mid 1970’s the first quartz movements were introduced, and also Yema decided to invest heavily in the research en development of new models with a quartz movement. This resulted among others in the second (quartz) generation of the Yema Yachtingraf   in 1977.

In 1982 John Henry Belmont Jr. takes over as CEO of Yema from his father. But he has other plans with the company, and decided to sell Yema in 1988 to the Japanese Seiko Watch Corporation. In 1995 Yema became a subsidiary to the Hattori-Seiko group under the name Yema S.A. It’s obvious that many of the Seiko movements are used in a Yema watch during that period.

In 1992 Yema is sponsoring the French team with skipper and helmsman Marc Pajot as competitor fort her America’s Cup (with yacht Ville de Paris).  For that occasion Yema launches the  America’s Cup France , with a Seiko 8M35 quartz regatta movement.

Different movement with three pushers, at 2, 4 and 8 o’clock:

And a third movement with two pushers at 8 and 10 o’clock:

From a more recent date are the Yema Yachting   models with an ISA 8270 movement, also quartz:

In 2004 the Yema brand is purchased by its CEO Louis Eric Beckensteiner, with financial help of the French Montres Ambre, a watchmaking and jewelry company. That makes Yema a 100% French watch brand again, with the name being changed into ‘Yema Horlogère Maison Francaise 1948’.

For their 70th anniversary Yema announces in 2018 the Heritage collection, to pay tribute to the brand’s most iconic timepieces: a Superman, a Rallygraf, a Yachtingraf and a Flygraf. The Yema Yachtingraf Heritage is an almost identical copy of the Yachtingraf Crossière (type 5) from 1969. The first 1948 watches will be numbered.

This Popular Vintage Chronograph Watch Is Back — in Bronze

The Yema Yachtingraf resurrects a watch from 1966, but adds some modern twists.

yema

By Zen Love

Regatta-style chronograph watches often stand out from the pack due to their colorful subdials — and you don’t have to race sailboats to appreciate this quirky but purposeful look that fascinates vintage watch collectors. Timepieces made specifically for timing regattas began proliferating in the 1950s , and Yema’s examples from the 1960s have long stood out.

Now, Yema has resurrected a 1966 model for 2021. Unlike those older models, though, the latest watches pack some modern twists — not least of which is a bronze case and 300m of water resistance.

best chronograph watches

Why the distinctive looks? Yacht races begin with a five-minute dash toward the starting line that has to be carefully timed; if you jump the gun and your vessel crosses the line early, you’re penalized. That’s why the Yachtingraf’s subdial is clearly broken into five-minute segments, resulting in an asymmetric look and a pop of color on the dial. (The watch’s running seconds subdial at 3 o’clock is much smaller than the yachting subdial.)

Yema captures the vintage regatta chronograph vibe well, but the watch likely won’t be mistaken for an actual vintage piece. Why? For starters, its 40mm brushed case is made of bronze, a material which simply wasn’t “a thing” in watchmaking back then . There’s also the fact that the chronograph subdial in question is at 9 o’clock rather than 3 o’clock as on vintage Yema Yachtingrafs.

Then, there are updates that are expected of reissues, such as sapphire crystal and a modern movement. Here, said movement is the same Seiko NE86 automatic chronograph caliber — automatic chronographs weren’t a thing yet in 1966, either — that powers the brand’s recent reissue of its motorsport chronograph, the Speedgraf . (It’s an interesting but still uncommon movement, even within Seiko’s own product lines .) Finally, water resistance of 300m essentially makes this a diver’s chronograph — although its bezel seems more geared toward general travel with its 12-hour markings.

When Yema reissued the Yachtingraf previously , it had an ETA 7750 movement, a steel case and a significantly higher price. When compared to the Speedgraf, the Yachtingraf’s premium features (case material, water resistance, etc.) make its mere $200 price difference seem very reasonable. You can pre-order one of the 200 limited-edition examples directly from Yema now for $1,699.

YEMA Yachtingraf – THE COMPENDIUM

Yema – a wellknown brand in France, got a eventful history with some take-over. In the 60s Yema produced 300.000 watches per year.

1963 was launched the “Superman”, a 300m water-resistant Watch for professional diver.

1966/67 sold about 400.000 Yema watches. 1968 they constructed the 200m water-resistant Yachtingraf, with Valjoux movement.

The company still exist in other hands till today and produced Yachting watches with Quartz movement in the 80s till now. The Team of the Americas Cup (Marc Pajot, 1991) took the time with Yema watches for example.

But here is the overview of the Yachtingraf watches with real movements.  Feel free to send all comments, facts and things about them if you can add some information please!

There are 7 different main executions of Yachtingraf:

1. 1966 yachtingraf valjoux 92, the first, very rare to find.

Yachtingrafs with differend brand on the dial.

Some dials are known with different brands printed on.

Interesting one found on eBay in Uruguay – Yachtingraf with brand LIDER. Serial doesn´t fit in the line of 2compax Yachtingrafs.

Lider seems to be a brand of Borel Fiels & Cie. SA from Neuchatel, Switzerland or Montres Leader SA. Keep on research.

About the quality and known issues of Yema Yachtingraf watches

Just my point of view, please. Feel free to send my comments if you know something better. Just in case you looking for one to buy these points may help you. The Yema Yachtingraf watches got mostly problems on:

– pushers (not available, normaly screwed in but mostly glued with metall glue) – lumen (uneven made) and many are bad relumed – cases often polished to death – glasses not to find as NOS, no good substitutes – hands are not to find if there are not the original ones – dials could have paintloss or paint bumpinesses (subdials left too!) – bakelitbezels are mostly losses the paint (but that´s not a yema thing alone) – Alubezels are mostly sold as NOS on ebay from France as 70s, they fit perfect and looks good. You can see if it is a “NOS” one on the green triangle at 12, it looks different to the old ones – numbers on the casebacks: different, earlier seems to be upcounting, later ones got mostly the same numbers, unsure about some numbers too (Yema seems to put the numbers on other models too, still to prove) – unbranded bridges / movements – maybe an advantage for doing the service but you will never know if the movement is original built in the watch, only some LeJour got signed bridges

About the different mounted regattahands on the subdial

Wonder why 50% of all bubbles looks to 12 and the other half looks to 6? Simple explaination but very good usability for different types of the regatta countdown (5/10 or 15 min) you find here at the Club Yema , Jerry found out!

About the movements

Just to know: Valjoux 7730 is the 1966 following movement to the Venus 188 (built from 1948-1966) after the take-over of Venus from Valjoux in 1966. The main difference is the cheaper cam-switching instead of high-end column wheel. Yema was one of the first that uses the Valjoux 7730/7734/7736 as substitute for Valjoux 92/72.

Variants: height: 6,00/6,65 mm | diameter 14 line (31mm) | 45 hrs power reserve | 17 rubins | 28.900 A/h (4Hz) – all variants were built over 2Mio. pieces

7730: basic version, built 1966 – 1973, 175k pieces 7731: like 7730 but with new balance piston 7733: redesigned 7731 in 1969 with different reset hammers 7733S: 7733 with regatta-module disc drive 7734: date wheel, not quickset 7736: chronograph with 12 hrs counter (built 1969-1978) 7737: with 10min regatta countdown (for example in Memosail)

Trying to specify the production years with movements for the Yachtingrafs. Help is needed here for the research.

first to last:

1966 – ???? V92 1966/67 – ???? V7730 (following V92) and later 7733 (starting when 1969 with launch of the movement – ????) 1966/67 – ???? V7734 Date 1966/67 – ???? V72 Croisiere 1969 – ???? V7736 (following the V72 Croisiere) 1969/70 – ???? 7733S Regate “white ship” 1970 – ???? 7733S Regate “blue ship”

Next to the Yachting Chronographs there are the well-known Car-Racing Chronographs – the Rallygraf and the Chronograph for the pilots Flygraf (1970).

Pour couronner le tout, la montre est une édition limitée. Seulement 75 pièces par déclinaison ont été produites pour le 75ème anniversaire de YEMA, rendant chaque montre encore plus précieuse.

L’essence de la YACHTINGRAF Tourbillon Maréographe réside dans son ancrage profond dans le savoir-faire horloger franco-suisse. Enracinée à Morteau, chaque composant, chaque rouage, évoque l’excellence et la minutie des artisans reconnus dans la haute horlogerie , travaillant dans un rayon intime de 72 km. YEMA, avec son engagement envers la qualité, usine les ponts, les platines et orchestre l’assemblage du mouvement et du boîtier dans ses ateliers prestigieux.

Mais ce n’est pas tout. Cette montre n’est pas seulement une déclaration esthétique. Elle est conçue pour résister, pour servir, pour impressionner. Dotée d’un verre saphir double dôme, d’une étanchéité inégalée et d’une résistance à toute épreuve, elle se distingue des autres montres tourbillon, souvent perçues comme de délicates œuvres d’art. Elle incarne l’essence même d’une “tool watch”, robuste tout en restant raffinée, fidèle à la lignée YEMA.

Enfin, les mots de CHRISTOPHER BÔLE résonnent avec force : YEMA est en train de redéfinir les frontières de la haute horlogerie, en s’aventurant dans la production de calibres uniques tout en conservant l’accessibilité. La vision est claire: si la capacité d’innover en produisant des pièces d’exception comme le Tourbillon ou le Micro-Rotor est démontrée, alors l’avenir des calibres à masse oscillante centrale est prometteur et audacieux.

La YACHTINGRAF Tourbillon Maréographe n’est pas qu’une montre. Elle est un symbole, un témoignage de l’innovation, de la tradition et de l’audace de YEMA. OLIVIER MORY, avec son génie horloger, et l’équipe dévouée de YEMA, ensemble, écrivent l’avenir de l’horlogerie.

Le brevet yema yachtingraf….

Brevet YEMA Yachtingraf_Focus Décompte

… ou le mystère d’une aiguille montée à l’envers… par R.C alias Jerry (mise à jour : 3 février 2019)

montre yema yachtingraf

Qui ne s’est jamais dit, en voyant le compteur ci-contre, “Pfff… Encore une aiguille de Yachtingraf montée à l’envers…” ?

D’autant plus que le catalogue et les publicités de l’époque mettent bien en scène une montre dont l’aiguille est montée dans l’autre sens, non ?

Yema Yachtingraf_Brochure 1970

Eh bien selon moi, c’est tout à fait discutable !

D’abord, remontons un peu le cours du temps. En juin 1966 et août 1966 ont été déposés par Henry Louis Blum , et publiés respectivement aux Etats-Unis et en Suisse pour le compte de la marque YEMA, les brevets d’invention horlogère N°3.427.800 et N°483.047 portant sur la création d’un chronographe doté d’une fonction de décompte de départ de régate. Ces deux brevets portent les doux noms de “ Watch for Yachting and underwater use ” pour le brevet américain et  “ Chronoscope” pour le brevet suisse .  Tu noteras la sobriété du second. On est en Suisse. Pas aux “ States “…

Bon. De quoi s’agit-il ?

Petit préambule utile, si tu n’es pas familier des courses nautiques : le départ d’une régate est une phase stratégique de la compétition, qui peut avoir de grosses conséquences sur la suite. Comme les voiliers peuvent difficilement partir à l’arrêt, surtout quand ils sont imposants, il existe un temps préalable au cours duquel les concurrents vont chercher à se placer le mieux possible pour franchir la ligne de départ à pleine vitesse lorsque le top est donné. Evidemment, le concurrent qui franchit la ligne avant le départ est disqualifié, ou doit effectuer une tour de pénalité qui lui fait regretter chèrement son erreur et compromet sérieusement sa course. Le début du décompte et les différentes séquences de cette phase préliminaire sont scandés par des coups de canons et des levées de pavillons. Pour se positionner le mieux possible, et autant que faire se peut, pénaliser leurs adversaires, les concurrents exploitent savamment le sens du vent et les règles de priorité en vigueur. Pour illustrer l’enjeu de cette phase préliminaire, j’ai en tête qu’il est arrivé, au cours de la fameuse compétition de la Coupe America, que les adversaires ne franchissent jamais la ligne de départ, chacun ayant systématiquement réussi à empêcher son rival de se lancer.

Le document du brevet, dans sa version suisse comme américaine, contient un schéma de présentation des différentes fonctions du chrono :

Après le brevet, la montre :

Et là, tu te dis… “Ben ? Elle est dans le même sens que sur le catalogue, là, l’aiguille ?! C’est juste pour me montrer ça qu’il me fait tout un sketch, le gars ?” Ttt Ttt Ttt… Attends !

Le brevet repose sur le postulat qu’il existe dans le monde de la compétition nautique deux zones, au sein desquelles les règles de départ de régate sont différentes. Le compteur du chronographe Yachtingraf est donc coupé en deux, dans la verticale. Petit croquis :

Le Brevet Yema Yachtingraf_Principe

Dans la zone B (Oui, je commence par la Zone “B”. C’est mon droit… non mais sans blague.), on est plutôt cool. On aime bien prendre son temps. Au début je me suis dit « Tiens, ça doit être du côté de la Suisse » (Que les Suisses me pardonnent. C’est grâce à leur calme et patience légendaires qu’ils produisent des montres magnifiques). Ma fille de 4 ans m’a alors fait remarquer sur un ton ironique que la Suisse c’est plutôt montagneux… Je lui ai rappelé l’existence du lac de Genève et je l’ai envoyée au lit. Puis j’ai relu la publicité presse présentée plus haut… et constaté que la Zone “B” se trouve plutôt à gauche de la Bretagne, de l’autre côté de l’Atlantique. Assez loin de la Suisse, finalement. Mais bon… ça, je ne l’ai pas dit à ma fille. J’ai mon orgueil.

Bref. Jon Snow, yachtman émérite qui participe chaque week-end à des compet’ de ouf dans la zone « B » dispose donc de 15mn, divisées en 3 tranches de 5 minutes, pour se taquiner avec ses concurrents et chercher à gagner la meilleure position de départ qui lui permettra, in fine, de monter sur le trône. Euh. Sur la première marche du podium.

Jon Snow utilisera, pour ne pas rater ses départs de régate, la partie gauche du compteur. Le décompte commence en bas du compteur, à 6:00 et remonte par la gauche vers le point “Zéro” du top départ. La partie droite du compteur ne lui sert strictement à rien !

Ragnar Lodbrok navigue, lui, dans une zone du globe où il fait beaucoup plus froid. On n’a pas de temps à perdre avec des ronds dans l’eau diplomatiques. On fait bref et efficace. Donc 10 minutes pour se mesurer à grand coup de « Tribord, nom de Thor ! », c’est largement suffisant. D’autant plus que dans cette zone, plus tu es sorti longtemps de chez toi, plus tu risques de retrouver un autre gars assis à ta place sur le trône, voire dans le lit de ta femme. Tout ça peut se terminer assez vite au grand banquet d’Odin. Chez Ragnar, on aime bien rigoler, mais on n’est pas forcément pressé de trinquer avec les dieux. Donc, dans la zone « A », les départs de régate se font seulement avec un décompte sur 10 minutes, en deux tranches de 5mn, et on rentre vite chez soi avec le butin si on a remporté la coupe en précieux métal. Dans ces conditions, inutile de te préciser, tu l’as déjà deviné, que la partie gauche du compteur de 15mn, Ragnar s’en tamponne très largement la partie inférieure.

Pour terminer la présentation du compteur de décompte, ta sagacité t’aura fait noter que le troisième secteur de la partie droite du cadran n’a absolument… aucune utilité.

Bon. Mais il y a eu dépôt de brevet, quand même ! Il doit bien y avoir une petite particularité horlogère ?! Alors je suis vraiment désolé de te décevoir, mais non. Ce compteur est un tout “bête” compteur de 30mn. C’est d’ailleurs ce qui a permis à la Yachtingraf, sans aucune modification de cadran, d’être animée indifféremment au cours de sa période de production par un Valjoux 92, un Vajoux 7730, un Valjoux 7734 avec date à 6h00, et même un Valjoux 7736 et un Valjoux 72 pour la déclinaison 3 compteurs de la Yachtingraf “Croisière”. De ce point de vue la Yachtingraf “Régate” qui fera son apparition quelques années plus tard, présente un intérêt horloger supérieur. En effet, ce chronographe est équipé d’un Valjoux 7733 modifié : un ergot a été rajouté à la roue du compteur de telle sorte que celui-ci se décale toutes les 30 secondes et non toutes les minutes. Si t’es sage, je te montrerai un jour.

Bon, mais alors ? Tête en haut, ou tête en bas ?

Le Brevet Yema Yachtingraf -Montage aiguille - Illustration Jerry

Si l’on retient l’idée que la tête de l’aiguille est la partie portant le cercle évidé, plus facile à identifier d’un coup d’oeil (je te rappelle que Jon Snow et Ragnar Lodbrok doivent simultanément tenir la barre, border leurs écoutes, observer leurs voiles et les concurrents à gauche comme à droite), il est tout à fait cohérent, d’une point de vue fonctionnel, de monter l’aiguille tête en bas ou tête en haut selon que l’on régate respectivement dans zone “B” ou la zone “A” du globe. Les deux sens de montage sont donc parfaitement acceptables, si l’on privilégie la fonction à toute autre considération.

CQFD ! QED ! Ça c’est de la démo !

Euh… Non… C’est pas fini… malgré tous mes efforts de recherche, sur internet, dans les ouvrages spécialisés, comme auprès d’éminents membres et arbitres de la Fédération Française de Voile, je n’ai JAMAIS réussi à mettre la main sur un règle de départ de régate en 15mn… Le texte du dépôt de brevet est assez imprécis : la zone “B” du compteur comprend “ trois tranches de 5 mn de différentes couleurs, représentant les 3 fois cinq minutes accordées généralement au départ des régates dans certains pays “. “Généralement”, “certains pays”… Pas bien précis tout ça. Cet usage de zone “B” ne serait-il pas une pure invention marketing ? Il existe pourtant de nombreux autres modèles de chronographes “Yachting” qui présentent le même compteur 15mn, et accréditent donc l’existence de ce type de décompte… sous les marques Heuer (en particulier avec le chrono Heuer Skipper), Jacquet Droz, Technos, Relide… Mais, mais, mais… ils sont contemporains de la Yachtingraf, pour laquelle YEMA a déposé un brevet… Partenariats commerciaux ? Droits d’exploitation de brevet ? Le mystère reste entier.

Quoiqu’il en soit, ce compteur cocardier fait encore courir les amateurs et offre largement de quoi refaire la course au bar !

Concrètement, ça marche comment ?

Rien de mieux qu’une petite mise en situation. L’occasion aussi de découvrir un dernier détail, celui qui m’a le plus amusé dans la compréhension de ce brevet. Pour te présenter tout ça, pas de schéma. Des photos. Comme si tu y étais.

BLAM ! Le premier coup de canon vient d’annoncer le début du temps réglementaire de 10mn (tu ne croyais quand même pas que j’allais te commenter en “direct live “une phase de préliminaire de 15 mn ?! Suis pas assez payé pour ça…)

Ragnar, pensant déjà au doux réconfort de sa magnifique épouse Lagertha lorsqu’il rentrera victorieux, s’est laissé surprendre. Il fait rentrer les avirons, borde sa voile, fait sonner la trompe à la poupe. Ce soir, il doit ramener la coupe à Lagertha ! Sinon, réconfort que dalle ! Il jette un oeil à la Yema Yachtingraf qu’elle lui a offert au solstice dernier. Déjà 1 mn 25 écoulée !

YEMA Yachtingraf Zone B Décompte 1mn

Ragnar aperçoit du coin de l’oeil un concurrent qui le rattrape sur son bâbord arrière. Il vire lof pour lof afin de le contraindre à changer de cap compte tenu du jeu des priorités. Menace momentanément écartée.

BLAM ! Nouveau coup de canon. Tout à sa manoeuvre, Ragnar n’a pas vu le temps passer (‘faut dire aussi qu’un drakkar, ça ne vire pas très vite…). D’où l’intérêt du décompte sonore. Déjà 5 minutes ?!

BLAM ! Coup de canon. dernier décompte de 5mn !

Tu te souviens que Ragnar a été un peu surpris par le premier coup de canon annonçant le début du décompte. Il a donc déclenché son chrono avec quelques secondes de retard. C’est contrariant. Mais Henry-Louis Blum a pensé à tout ! Regarde bien…

Pour Ragnar, le temps s’arrête. Il amène posément le triangle situé à 12:00 de la lunette de son chrono en face de la grande aiguille tachymétrique. Il dispose maintenant, en plus du compteur de décompte, d’une mesure très précise du temps réel restant, essentiel à maîtriser sur la dernière minute précédant le départ.

montre yema yachtingraf

Bon. Je te rappelle quand même que Ragnar effectue cette manipulation au milieu des embruns, de la houle et des cris… t’imagines ce que ça aurait donné si le temps ne s’était pas suspendu et que l’aiguille avait poursuivi sa course … Si j’ajoute que Ragnar peut avoir dépassé la cinquantaine et qu’il est devenu presbyte… C’est ça, le vrai secret du Brevet Yema Yachtingraf. Il arrête le temps et le mouvement. Mouarf !

BAOOUM ! Plus qu’une minute ! La grande aiguille tachymétrique permet maintenant à Ragnar de suivre avec précision le temps restant avant le coup de canon qui annoncera le départ. Paré à virer ?! Choque tes écoutes ! Vire !

YEMA Yachtingraf_Décompte 1mn

BLAM !  Dernier coup de canon. La course est lancée ! Fonce, Ragnar, Fonce ! Pense à Lagertha !

YEMA Yachtingraf_Go! Go! Go!

Accessoirement, si tu regardes la partie gauche du compteur, tu constates que si tu avais été en train de régater à bord du Yacht de  Jon Snow, le coup de canon annonçant le départ de la course pour Ragnar viendrait seulement d’avoir annoncé le début du décompte des 5 dernières minutes avant le départ.

BRAOUM ! Le coup de canon vient de prévenir Jon Snow (celui qui navigue dans la zone “B” et sur le bateau duquel tu n’as pas embarqué étant donné que tu as préféré régater avec Ragnar dans la Zone “A”. Ce serait sympa de suivre quand je t’explique…) qu’il ne reste plus qu’une minute avant le départ (en haut à gauche du compteur). En bas à droite, la tête de l’aiguille parvient à la dernière minute du secteur blanc, “zone morte” inexploitée.

Et voilà. Tu sais tout du brevet Yema Yachtingraf.

En synthèse , si tu t’es endormi au fond de la classe en rêvant de courses de F1.

  • Si tu régates avec les règles de course internationales en vigueur, dans la zone que j’ai appelée “zone A”, avec une phase préliminaire de 10 mn, tu utiliseras la partie droite du compteur. Le suivi du décompte s’opère en observant la course la tête de l’aiguille (cercle évidé) qui descend vers la droite quand tu lances le chrono. Le “go” du départ est donné lorsque la tête de l’aiguille atteint la limite de la zone rouge, au bout des 10mn.
  • Si tu régates avec les règles (introuvables…) de la zone “B”, supposée être américaine, avec une phase préliminaire de 15 minutes, tu utiliseras la partie gauche du compteur. Tu suivras cette fois-ci le décompte en observant la course de l’extrémité opposée de l’aiguille (extrémité effilée), qui remonte vers le haut par la gauche du compteur. Le “go du départ sera donné lorsque la pointe effilée atteindra la limite de la zone rouge, en haut à gauche.
  • Et si, naviguant dans la zone “B”, tu souhaites une meilleure lisibilité, tu optimiseras ton chrono et demanderas à ton horloger de te monter l’aiguille tête en bas, pour que la lecture du temps de décompte soit plus facile !

YEMA Yachtingraf_2 montages d'aiguille possibles

Il a quand même dû se passer un truc entre ces deux là pendant que MikaWatches et moi-même avions le dos tourné… Tu n’as en effet pas pu manquer la naissance récente de la Yachtingraf Héritage , qui a emprunté à l’une son cadran, et à l’autre son boîtier ! Je dis ça, je dis rien.

In Russia, in the city of Elektrostal (Moscow region), during demonstrations, Rosgvardia soldiers began shooting at spectators with children from machine guns with blank cartridges.

So far, one injured child is known.

This was reported by the local Telegram channel of the Cheka-OGPU.

"Small children were clutching their heads screaming and falling to the ground. Not without injuries. The child received serious damage from a rebounded cartridge case," the report said.

One of the witnesses to the incident posted a video. It was her child who was shot by the Russian Guards. In the video, a child can be heard crying and screaming violently.

After the woman realized that her child had been wounded, she called her husband and doctor.

Meanwhile, Russian occupier Ivan Alekseev in the war in Ukraine after a drunken quarrel killed his colleague and tried to cover up the crime, saying it was the work of "Ukrainian saboteurs."

It is also interesting that Russia recently arranged a solemn farewell to Vladimir Shestakov, convicted for the murder of a child, who became a mercenary of PMC "Wagner" and was liquidated in the war in Ukraine.
