Great watch. @drcarter13 turned me on to Cuervo y Sobrinos. They are on my short list. Problem is my short list isn't very short.
It's Cuervo (Raven) y Sobrinos, not Cuero (Leather). They were watchmakers and importers catering to locals and visitors in pre-Castro Cuba. They were also a well-respected brand in my former home region of Spain, the Canary Islands, due to the historical ties between these islands and Cuba. The revived brand is Swiss made, but has a very distinctive style with often oversized lugs and names referencing it's Caribbean past.

Love the brand and it's history. Their watches are simply beautiful and there is something for everyone. I would encourage anyone looking for something unique to check them out.
Thanks Mike for the tag.
