Flygraf Pilot Khaki

Yema, an unsuspecting name coined by Henry Louis Belmont during a school contest back in his teenage years, goes on to attain a massive following throughout its 72 years of watchmaking. Graduating at the top of his class in the National Watchmaking School of Besançon, Belmont lives up to his title with exquisite timepieces that are out of this world, literally, when the Yema Spationaute flew to space on astronaut Jean-Loup Chrétien's wrist.

Buckle your seatbelts as Yema introduces the newest addition to her aviator watch collection, the Yema Flygraf Pilot. Dating all the way back to the 1970s, Yema's Flygraf chronographs are crafted in close collaboration with pilot watch enthusiasts and professional pilots to reach the greatest heights in the watch industry. Designed jointly with professional aerobatic pilot Sammy Mason who at age 19 became the youngest member of the US National Advanced Aerobatic Team, this timepiece draws inspiration from both Flieger and military field watches from World War II.
