NEW ARRIVAL
Just had to share as I'm thoroughly thrilled with my latest aquisition..a brand that doesnt seem to get much love/respect on the forums but after seeing this in person cant imagine why.
Not big on the unboxing thing but this came in a huge birds-eye maple/ marble humidor ...anyway here it is:

NEW ARRIVAL
That is very nice! I have actually looked long and hard at that brand as they offer many unique models, but I have not found the right one yet.
What is the size of that one?

So is it a Cuban Swiss Made watch?

Welcome to the Forum!
It's great to see such a beautiful C&S around here; they're not that common.
Enjoy your new watch.

Never heard of them... but who could dislike a two tone sector dial? Looks very nice!

Thanks for the positive comments ...its 42mm , it's made in Switzerland with a "Cuban Flair" whatever that means ETA movement , I kinda like under the radar pieces but the finish and details on this are amazing
CyS history dates back to the 1800s as a Cuban Jewelery maker but they registered as watchmakers in Switzerland in 1963

Congratulations! I think it's a great looking watch and you're right. The brand doesn't have a lot of recognition, but I have long admired them. A latin flavor, with Swiss Made. If memory serves, they are now headquartered in Paris?
