YEMA NAVYGRAF FSM BRONZE
YNAVZ22FSM-AAS
$ 1,190 USD
Official watch of Marine Nationale's French Submarine Forces following FOST's elite corps 50th anniversary. Delivered with a YEMA cap.
The Navygraf FSM Bronze has been designed in collaboration with Marine Nationale in order to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Strategic Oceanic Force (FOST). Equipped with our In-house Caliber YEMA2000 and an oversized double domed sapphire crystal, the Navygraf FSM Bronze takes inspiration from the first Navygraf model from the 1970s and has been designed as a precise timekeeping instrument for military personnel aboard FOST’s nuclear-powered submarines.
STRATEGIC OCEANIC FORCE (FOST) 50TH ANNIVERSARY
Created on March 1st, 1972 the Strategic Oceanic Force (FOST) is the key naval component of Marine Nationale's Submarine Forces, made up of 4,000 sailors, military and civilians, who operate 4 ballistic missile nuclear submarines (SNLE), 6 nuclear attack submarines (SNA) and units providing their command and support.
SUBMARINE FORCES DIAL
The bronze case hue is found as well in the dial's Navygraf mention, the indexes and watch hands while the black dial is reminiscent of FOST's nuclear submarines' hulls.
The FORCES SOUS-MARINES curved mention at 6 o'clock and the indexes in the shape of "exclamation points" are inspired by the 1970s Navygraf vintage model. Finally, the fine red tip of the seconds hand brings a touch of colour that is both elegant and functional.
DESIGNED BY AND FOR NAVY SUBMARINE CREW
Beyond its striking aesthetics, the Navygraf FSM Bronze is above all a military-grade tool watch designed in collaboration with Marine Nationale Submarine Forces built to military personnel specifications and strict requirements.
ICONIQUE TROTTEUSE “PELLE”
L'emblématique aiguille des secondes chromée avec sa tête en forme de pelle est exactement la même que celle utilisée sur certains modèles Superman YEMA d’époque.

OVERSIZED DOUBLE-DOMED SAPPHIRE CYSTAL
The Navygraf FSM Bronze has a 3.00mm thick double-domed sapphire crystal, offering better readability, increased resistance and a resolutely vintage look.
38.5MM BRONZE CASE
The bronze case, an alloy that develops a patina over time, echoes various key mechanical elements used in submarines such as the flush blocks allowing submarines to rise to the surface, the fast flush control that ensures the safety of the submarine and the filling and emptying sections of the weapon launcher tubes.
The bronze case boasts different finishes with vertical brushing, polished bevelled lugs and a circular brushed bezel. With a diameter of 38.5mm and a contained thickness of 11.3mm (14.1mm with the double-domed sapphire crystal), the Navygraf FSM Bronze offers ideal dimensions for neo-vintage watches amateurs.
SUPER-LUMINOVA
The hands, dial and bezel markers are treated with Swiss Super-LumiNova® C1 so as to offer perfect readability in low light conditions.

MARINE NATIONALE PARACHUTE STRAP
This iconic strap was originally handmade by French Marine Nationale combat divers in the 1970’s. The resourceful frogmen fashioned straps from used parachutes by recovering the elastic webbing to sew them back on and adapt them to their diver watches. For years, this type of strap has remained purely military, nowadays it’s a great alternative to NATO straps.
SINGLE PASS
The unique single pass design offers the security of a regular NATO strap but wears slimmer on the wrist as only one layer of elastic goes under the watch head.
FITS ANY WRIST SIZE
The adjustable ladder buckle design enables to easily adjust the length of the strap individually, guaranteeing a perfect fit on wrists from 6” to 9” (15cm to 23cm).
OFFICIAL BUCKLE
Engraved with Marine Nationale’s official logo and made in brushed bronze, the buckle is slim but strong enough to stand up to wear and tear.
ALL-SEASON COMFORT
Crafted from military-grade elastic parachute webbing for extreme comfort and moisture regulation, these straps make for a quality, slimmer alternative to a NATO design.
