The story

Cuervo y Sobrinos pays tribute to the first official Formula One World Champion "Nino" Farina who gained the title in 1950.

"Nino Farina was the man of courage that bordered on the improbable. Capable of daring stunts that were often his winning move. A great driver, but one for whom you always had to be apprehensive.." - this the incipit with which Enzo Ferrari described Emilio Giuseppe Farina, also known as “Nino”.

The Historiador Nino Farina II follows the highly acclaimed first limited series that sold out in a very short time. It is a new chronograph, limited to 158 pieces, inspired by the historic race, but made for a modern audience.

Cuervo y Sobrinos Maison wanted to put a few twists on the previous series, changing the colours and reducing the case size for even sportier use without sacrificing elegance.

With a diameter of 40 mm, the Cuervo y Sobrinos Historiador Nino Farina II is housed in a stainless steel case. The dial sits under a double-curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment. 

The watch comes with a matte brown calf "racing style" strap with light blue stitching. It features numerous perforations, a detail inspired by racing gloves of bygone days. The case back is embellished with a dedication to the world champion ("Primero Campeon Mundial" - the first world champion) and his signature.

The Historiador Nino Farina is a limited edition of 158 pieces, individually numbered, certainly inspired by the legendary Alfa Romeo 158. In fact, the colors are a reminder of it: the hands of the minute and hour counters of the chronograph are red like the color of the car's exterior, while the central seconds hand and part of the tachymeter in the upper right corner are green like the four-leaf clover: the historical symbol of the Alfa Romeo company.

 

At the heart of the timepiece is a Swiss automatic movement, the CyS 8129 caliber. Based on the ETA 2894, the movement features an engraved oscillating weight and a 42-hour power reserve.
