USER MANUAL Superman Heritage YEMA

Your YEMA watch is equipped with a screw-down crown. A screw-down crown ensures waterproofness by sealing the crown to the case of the watch.

POSITION B MANUAL WINDING

Your YEMA watch is equipped with a self-winding mechanical movement, this means is wound automatically by wrist movements alone. To ensure optimum winding, wear your watch daily.

Before you first use the watch or if unworned for a long period of time, you will need to wind it manually by unscrewing the crown and then turning it clockwise.

POSITION C RAPID DATE-SETTING

If your YEMA watch is equipped with a date, to adjust the date, unscrew the crown and pull it out to the second notch. Then simply turn it clockwise until the desired date appears in the window. During this operation, your watch will keep running.

IMPORTANT: Do not make date adjustments when the time on the watch reads between the hours of 9:00pm and 3:00am. The reason is that although a date makes its changeover close to midnight, the gears that make that change happen to engage quite a bit earlier. It takes extra time to disengage completely in the aftermath.

TIME SETTING POSITION D

In order to adjust the time, unscrew the crown and pull it out to the last notch. Then turn it in either direction until the hands indicate the correct time. The small seconds hand is stopped during this operation, allowing the time to be set accurately.

BEZEL-LOCK MECHANISM

As an extra safety measure, YEMA developed a proprietary bezel-lock mechanism in the 1960s, which is still used nowadays and brings a unique look to the Superman Collection.

BEZEL FUNCTIONS

The unidirectional rotatable bezel allows precise measurement of dive times. For safety, the bezel rotates counter-clockwise only.

Before beginning your descent, unscrew the crown to POSITION B to unlock the bezel, then turn the bezel until the 12 o'clock triangle marker is opposite to the minute hand. To finish, screw-down the crown to POSITION A.

This indicates the beginning of the dive. The duration of the dive is indicated on the graduation on the bezel by the minute hand.

MAINTENANCE

OF YOUR YEMA WATCH

A YEMA watch requires little maintenance. However, some precautions must be taken to ensure the durability of your YEMA:

• Ensure that the crown is perfectly screwed down after winding up the movement and/or setting the time and the date. Once the crown is fully screwed down against the case, your YEMA watch is guaranteed waterproof.
• Avoid activities that may expose your watch movement to shocks.
• Never use chemicals to clean your YEMA watch. Use a microfibre cloth and wash the metal, rubber, fabric bracelets and waterproof cases from time to time with a soft brush and soapy water. We recommend that you do not use abrasive or corrosive products (solvents, detergents, perfume, etc.).
• Always rinse your watch with fresh water after it's been exposed to salt water.
