This precious pocket watch is a unique masterpiece, showcasing one of the most romantic and rarest co-signed dials. Cuervo y Sobrinos, founded in 1882 in La Habana, Cuba, lends its name to this exquisite piece. The watch features a fabulous two-tone dial, with a center vertical brushed surrounded by a textured ring with Breguet numerals and hands, set against a handmade guilloché silver case with a captivating coin-edge bezel. Accompanied by an extract from the archives, this timepiece not only embodies exceptional craftsmanship but also offers unparalleled historical authenticity, making it a true gem for discerning collectors.
According to the Longines archives, this pocket watch was originally invoiced on April 26th, 1928, to the company Cuervo y Sobrinos, who at the time was the agent for Longines in Cuba.
