Yema Rallygraf Panda

ALL THE WAY FROM FRANCE!

In love with the heritage, the neo-vintage look and feel, and most importantly the price of <$300. Definitely a watch full of value!

39mm case size fits just nice on my 6.25" wrist, in fact it wears smaller despite the long lugs of 48mm L2L.

True! Yema as a brand is just too underrated man. This watch has amazed so many of my friends with its quality and design, and most importantly its price!

Beautiful watch. I see a lot of reports quality control problems and defects on YouTube. What's your experience so far?

I think it's a valid concern, however if you trace back to the date when critics were given, it was at the earlier stage (possibly the first batch) of the production/sales of this watch. Same as you, I was skeptical at first, but their customer services actually intrigued me and I think they deserve a second chance.

After few days, I got the watch and it is still by far one of my favourite watches among my collection. I have no problem with it, the common misaligned of chronograph hand with Seiko VK63/64 movement is widely known to the community and the fix is pretty easy.

Thanks for your reply. I'll be traveling to Europe in the summer and I'd love to get a Yema but I'm worried that if it needs repairs it would be costly to ship it from Canada, where I live. I'll keep doing research. It's sad they got this reputation and some have lost confidence because the watches are beautiful, they have history, and the movements are very good, for the price of course.

Yema has so many other good offerings, especially with their Superman diver and Speedgraf. I think they are in the process of rebuilding their brand and reputation, but I personally would take that risk as long as the buying experience is actually good for me. And I am actually glad I did make the purchase. The experience might vary from one customer to another, but mine is a pleasant one.
