The story

The inaugural Cuban Grand Prix, the Gran Premio de Cuba was held in 1957. The race threaded its way through the grand avenues and vibrant esplanade of Malecón, north of Havana.

Dressed in a vibrant shade of red, the dial evokes thoughts of passion. Indeed, the sight of brightly hued race cars screaming around the circuit, driven close to the edge of their handling limits, must have proved captivating.

When driving a car in the heat of competition, the dial must impart meaning efficiently. It is for this reason that Cuervo y Sobrinos has chosen to employ fulsome, cream Arabic numerals to intelligibly convey meaning. The hour markers are treated with Super-LumiNova, enhancing readability in dim light.
