Yema Granvelle Renaissance CMM.29: French Renaissance architecture on the wrist

This Yema Granvelle Renaissance Champagne CMM.29 77.26.29.08.SN.L8 inaugurates a new design approach for the French manufacturer. Unlike Yema's iconic sports collections like the Superman or Navygraf, this Yema Granvelle adopts a decidedly dressy positioning. Its case is directly inspired by the arches of the Granvelle Palace in Besançon, the historic cradle of French watchmaking and home to the Museum of Time.

The 37.5 mm case of the Yema Granvelle features remarkable finishing work, alternating vertically brushed surfaces, polished chamfers, and fluted flanks. At only 8.5 mm thick, this Yema Granvelle is among the thinnest watches ever produced by the brand. Its perfectly balanced proportions allow for an elegant presence on the wrist without excess.

The champagne dial of the Yema Granvelle is one of its main assets. Its sophisticated construction combines an off-center concentric guilloché pattern with a small seconds sub-dial at 9 o'clock. The minute track sculpted directly into the metal brings depth and refinement to this Yema Granvelle, while the polished dauphine hands reinforce its classic and timeless character.

At the heart of the Yema Granvelle beats the manufacture Yema CMM.29 micro-rotor caliber developed in Morteau. This sophisticated architecture allows the oscillating weight to be integrated directly into the thickness of the movement in order to maintain an extremely slim profile. This Yema watch thus benefits from a 70-hour power reserve while offering a spectacular view of the movement through its transparent sapphire case back.

The premium leather strap of the Yema Granvelle perfectly complements the elegance of the model. Featuring a pin buckle and a water resistance of 50 meters, this Yema Granvelle Renaissance CMM.29 is aimed at enthusiasts of contemporary French haute horlogerie looking for an original dress watch with a true manufacture movement and a strong French cultural identity.
