Buyalov НВЧ-20vsYema Diver

The Buyalov НВЧ-20 is praised for its strong, coherent design and original material finishes, with its Raketa-style dial and Akula case evoking submarine clocks. Owners widely report its modern lume is highly legible throughout the night, outperforming typical Amphibia lume. The no-date dial is considered attractive, and the red dial pops in natural light. Some users question its "homage" nature and Asian manufacturing, with availability and payment issues being significant concerns. One owner notes the 46mm case size might be large for smaller wrists, and others find the bezel design unfinished and dial color choices too trendy. Overall, owners rate the Buyalov НВЧ-20 highly for its design and lume performance at the price.

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.
