In February of 1945, Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin convened near Yalta in Crimea for discussions on the post-war future of Europe. Referred to as the ‘Big Three’, the leaders engaged in talks over several days. Cuervo y Sobrinos seeks to honor this significant era in 20th-century history with the introduction of a limited-edition watch, the Robusto Churchill “Yalta Edition”. Specifically commemorating the enduring friendship between Churchill and Roosevelt, the watch pays homage to the bond between the UK and the US.
The Robusto Churchill ‘Yalta Edition’ marks the 75th anniversary of the Yalta conference and the special relationship between these two nations. The dial, with a Clous de Paris motif, resembles interwoven arc-shaped lines, with day and date indicators discreetly placed above 6 o’clock. Positioned at 3 o’clock, a hinged lever serves as the crown, ensuring a symmetrical profile and comfortable wear. The watch comes with either an alligator strap or a stainless steel bracelet.
Cuervo y Sobrinos has a rich history dating back to 1862 when Spanish immigrant Ramón Fernández Cuervo opened a jewelry and watch repair shop in Havana, Cuba. In 1882, the business expanded with the incorporation of Cuervo’s nephews, officially becoming Cuervo y Sobrinos. The company thrived during Cuba’s golden age in the 1950s, with its prestigious boutique in Havana frequented by distinguished figures like Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein, and Ernest Hemingway. Today, Cuervo y Sobrinos is located in Switzerland, but despite this, it has remained true to its Latin roots, drawing inspiration from its Cuban heritage for its watch designs and collections.
Cuervo y Sobrinos has withstood the test of time, blending Swiss watchmaking expertise with Cuban flair, earning them a loyal following among watch enthusiasts. As an authorized retailer of Cuervo y Sobrinos watches, we guarantee the authenticity of our timepieces, which are sourced directly from the manufacturer and come with the full two-year manufacturer’s warranty.
