Between yesterday and todayBASELWORLD 2015: The Cuervo y Sobrinos Historiador Vuelo

24.03.2015 08:55 Uhr

Havana moved to a different beat in 1882; a more leisurely "tiempo lento" that made time to savour every moment in life. Cuervo y Sobrinos brings this "slow time" up-to-date with a flight - "vuelo" in Spanish - between yesterday and today.

The Swiss watchmaker with a Latin soul has revived one of its vintage, 1940s timepieces and injected an elegant, modern feel into a completely reworked design. The complex construction of the case extends to the original form of the lugs, which are individually shaped and adjusted to be the exact continuation of the chronograph pushers. The three-tier dial presents a carefully engineered display, with small seconds and minute counter on a first level, the 24-hour scale for the GMT function, numerals and hour-markers on a second level, and minutes and seconds on a third level. All these functions are driven by an automatic movement, made in the finest Swiss tradition.

Cuervo y Sobrinos looks to its Cuban origins and brings a Caribbean flavour to Swiss watchmaking. The new Torpedo Pirata Chrono Day Date offers a wealth of details, inspired by the buccaneers who once plundered ships along the Cuban coast.

This partnership marks a significant breakthrough for the watchmaking industry SIHH and BASELWORLD to coordinate their dates from 2020

In 2020, the SIHH will be held from 26 to 29 April in Geneva, followed immediately by Baselworld from 30 April to 5 May in Basel. The calendars have been synchronised until 2024.
