The Yema Superman Dato CMM.10 marks a decisive turning point in the evolution of one of the most iconic divers in French watchmaking. While remaining faithful to the tool-watch spirit that has made the Superman famous since the 1960s, this new generation introduces deeply updated technical and stylistic solutions, designed for a modern and demanding public.

Available in 39.5 mm and 41 mm, the new Superman features a completely redesigned steel case, more harmonious and slender. The lugs, now delicately curved and no longer drilled, significantly improve wearability on the wrist and contribute to a cleaner and more contemporary aesthetic. The absence of traditional crown guards provides a purer silhouette, highlighting the overall symmetry of the design.
One of the key elements of this evolution is the new "push-to-unlock" bezel locking mechanism, completely integrated beneath the bezel itself. This solution eliminates any visible external elements, offering a slimmer and more modern profile without sacrificing the functionality that has made the Superman legendary. The bezel remains locked by default, preventing accidental rotations, and can only be rotated by applying downward pressure, ensuring safety, precision, and an intuitive and fluid user experience.
The zirconium ceramic bezel represents a further leap in quality. Its polished finish gives depth and elegance to the dial, while ensuring high resistance to scratches, discoloration, UV rays, and corrosion. It is a material designed to last over time, even in the most extreme conditions.
Great attention has also been paid to the dial, which in this new generation acquires a more refined and contemporary character. The polished black and blue lacquered versions play with light thanks to steel hands and applied raised indices, creating visual continuity with the ceramic bezel. The variant with a matte lacquered white dial, combined with IP black-treated hands and indices, offers a bold and modern contrast, maintaining a sober and minimalist elegance. The date at six o'clock contributes to the balance of the layout, reinforcing the symmetry and cleanliness of the design.
The domed double-curved sapphire crystal, with anti-reflective coating, improves readability in all conditions and recalls the vintage aesthetic of historical divers, without compromising robustness.
At the heart of the Yema Superman Dato beats the latest evolution of the CMM.10 manufacture caliber, visible through the transparent sapphire caseback. This automatic movement with date complication offers chronometric precision and a 70-hour power reserve, confirming Yema's commitment to developing high-performance proprietary movements. The caseback maintains a water resistance of 20 BAR (200 meters), a truly remarkable technical achievement for a watch with a visible movement.
Completing the experience is the new Scales bracelet, inspired by the historical YEMA design of the 1960s but reinterpreted in a modern key. Thinner and lighter, it naturally follows the wrist and integrates a sophisticated Glide micro-adjustment system, allowing quick and precise adjustments without removing the watch. A solution designed for everyday comfort, perfectly consistent with the Superman's professional vocation.
Grade A Super-LumiNova treatment on the indices, hands, and bezel ensures excellent readability even in low-light conditions, reinforcing the model's diving and functional essence.
The Yema Superman Dato CMM.10 is therefore much more than an update: it is a mature and conscious reinterpretation of an icon, capable of blending heritage, technical innovation, and contemporary elegance. A new-generation diver, designed for those seeking real performance, clean design, and a strong connection to the history of French watchmaking.
