With this new vintage themed automatic chronograph, Swiss luxury watch brand Cuervo y Sobrinos pays tribute to its inaugural Historiador model, released back in 1946. The Cuervo y Sobrinos Historiador Cronógrafo 1946 has a ‘panda’ style dial, executed in antique salmon with contrasting tobacco coloured counters.
The watch features a 40mm diameter stainless steel case. The dial boasts an antique salmon color and incorporates tobacco hued, snailed counters evoking the highly popular ‘panda’ style.
A tachymeter scale frames the display while the period-inspired double curved sapphire crystal allows light to flood the dial, augmenting readability.
A brown Louisiana alligator strap, featuring a matte finish, echoes the colour of the chronograph counters to deliver a harmonious appearance.
The Cuervo y Sobrinos Historiador Cronógrafo 1946 houses the 33 jewel automatic CyS 8123 calibre (base ETA 2094), which provides a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. This movement can be admired through the sapphire crystal case-back.
The new Cronógrafo 1946 is limited to just 100 pieces.
