Cuervo y Sobrinos Introduces the Modern Classic: Robusto 1935
Cuervo y Sobrinos, with its deep roots tracing back to 1882 in Havana, Cuba, unveils the Robusto 1935—a contemporary reinterpretation of its iconic Art Deco design from the 1930s. Inspired by the vibrant era of President Gerardo Machado’s modernization efforts in Havana, the original watch embodied the Art Deco style that influenced the city’s architecture and culture.
Today, Cuervo y Sobrinos pays homage to its heritage with the Robusto 1935, blending timeless elegance with modern sophistication. This versatile timepiece seamlessly transitions from casual to formal settings, embodying an effortless style suitable for daily wear and special occasions alike.
Available in four dial colors—Habana, Ceniza, Azul Marino, and Verde Manzana—the Robusto 1935 features facetted hour and minute hands enhanced with Super-LumiNova® for excellent visibility day and night. Multi-facetted applied indices further enhance readability, complemented by a slender central seconds hand and a date display at 6 o’clock surrounded by octagonally-shaped accents. The dial is protected by a double curved sapphire crystal that optimizes light intake, ensuring clear legibility under various lighting conditions.
Crafted with a 40mm stainless steel case, the Robusto 1935 boasts a meticulously designed profile with a combination of polished and brushed surfaces. The screw-in crown, nestled within the caseband, enhances water resistance up to 100 meters, while a 3-row stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp secures the watch comfortably on the wrist.
Turning the watch over reveals the CYS 8130 automatic caliber through a transparent caseback, showcasing the intricate workings of the movement. Equipped with a double cone Incabloc® shock absorber for enhanced durability, the oscillating weight is adorned in blue with an inscription that pays homage to the original 1935 design.
The Cuervo y Sobrinos Robusto 1935 not only celebrates the brand’s Cuban heritage but also integrates Swiss watchmaking expertise from the shores of Lake Lugano. It represents a harmonious blend of two worlds—‘Born in Havana. Crafted in Switzerland.’—and stands as a testament to the brand’s commitment to timeless elegance and innovation.
