Yema Yachtingraf
On March 3, 1967 Henry L. Blum of Montres Yema S.A. filed a patent for a ‘Watch for Yachting and Underwater use’.
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.
