Cuervo y Sobrinos – New Steel and Rose gold Versions of Prominente Dualtime and Prominente Chronograph

Posted on by

Swiss luxury watch brand Cuervo y Sobrinos presents new steel and rose gold versions of its Prominente Dualtime and Prominente Chronograph models.

Cuervo y Sobrinos Prominente Dualtime

Named after one of the greatest cigars ever made, the steel version dares to marry traditional Roman-numeral design and Arabic numerals, as well as rectilinear and round forms. Both sensual and masculine, it displays the time in two time zones.

Only a watch brand such as Cuervo y Sobrinos could dare, without losing its credibility, to use such a dial design where square meets oval, rectangle, star and waves.

The shapes are in perfect balance. The markers for current local time, carefully studied down to the last detail, are Roman numerals against a background of wave guillochage encircled by a filigree oval. A window with unexpected lines reveals the date and day of the week in a first time zone. The second time zone is displayed in 24-hour time.

The Prominente Dualtime watch contains two self-winding mechanisms. Their sophisticated details can be seen through an anti-glare sapphire crystal. The time zone, date and day of the week are found in the centre of the dial.

A brand within the brand, the brand’s logo is engraved in indigo blue on the oscillating weight against Cuervo y Sobrinos’ exclusive fan decoration. This model has a 48-hour power reserve. The screwed caseback is sealed to withstand 3 atm. of pressure.

This model is available as a gem-set version or without stones, in steel and 18-carat rose gold, with a crocodile strap and a pin buckle or folding clasp. The Prominente Dualtime is available in the brand’s traditional colours.

After the success of a limited series of 125 pieces last year, Cuervo y Sobrinos is adding the Prominente Chronograph in steel and 18-carat rose gold to its standard collection. The timepiece will now be available in the brand’s traditional colours – cream, black and white.

The fluid lines of the Prominente Chronograph are a reinterpretation of the elegant models of the art deco period. The ample, elegant shape of the timepiece’s oblong case closely hugs the wearer’s wrist. The shape of the case is slightly rounded, which is also expressed in the pushpieces that operate the chronograph functions.

The chronograph’s three counters – hours, 30 minutes and seconds – do their work against the background of a guilloché dial. A worthy addition, the crown for setting the time and date sets the finishing touch to this aesthetic balance.

The Prominente Chronograph contains a self-winding movement, the sophisticated details of which can be seen through an anti-glare sapphire crystal on the caseback. A brand within the brand, the CYS logo is engraved in indigo blue on the oscillating weight with its exclusive fan-shaped motif.

This model has a 42-hour power reserve. The screwed caseback is sealed to withstand 3 atm of pressure. The collection version of the Chronographe Prominente is available in steel and 18-carat rose gold in the brand’s traditional colours – cream, black and white. The timepiece has a crocodile strap.
