Yema Unveils Flygraf CPA10 – Official Watch Of The Commando Parachutiste Air 10

, , , 0

French watchmaker Yema, has a long-standing reputation for crafting durable tool watches designed for demanding conditions. Its latest release, the Flygraf CPA10, continues this tradition, created in collaboration with the Commando Parachutiste de l’Air No.10 (CPA10) of the French Air Force and equipped with the brand’s in-house CMM.10 automatic movement.

 

Titanium Case Built for the Field

The Flygraf CPA10 is housed in a 40 mm Grade 2 titanium case, chosen for its lightweight strength, with a thickness of just 11.40 mm and a 46m m lug-to-lug span. The case is finished with a matte brushed texture to reduce reflections, a practical detail for military use. Its oversized crown features the French Air Force emblem and offers secure grip, while the watch is water-resistant to 100 metres, making it capable of handling aquatic environments encountered during missions.

 

Flieger-Inspired Dial with Military Detailing

The navy blue dial incorporates several references to its military origins. It carries the CPA10 insignia and an applied silver medallion at 6 o’clock, decorated with a winged parachute, star, and the French tricolour. Large Arabic numerals and the sword-style hands are treated with blue-emission Super-LumiNova, ensuring excellent low-light legibility. In a distinctive touch, the 10 o’clock numeral — honouring the CPA10 unit — is coated with white-emission Super-LumiNova for instant recognition.

 

In-House CMM.10 Automatic Movement

Visible through the sapphire exhibition caseback, the CMM.10 calibre operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour and delivers a power reserve of 70 hours. The movement is regulated to chronometric standards of -3/+5 seconds per day and features a bidirectional openworked rotor in a gunmetal finish. Its bridges and plates undergo micro-blasting and galvanic treatment for durability and a refined industrial look. The caseback is also printed with the insignia of the 602 GIA (Air Infantry Group), the CPA10’s historical predecessor.

 

Strap and Price

The Flygraf CPA10 is fitted with a navy blue canvas strap with white stitching, secured by a brushed titanium pin buckle and priced € 1,690.
