Zenith launches El Primero Legend of Cohiba in Kuwait
Manufacture Zenith and Behbehani Group celebrated the unveiling of this watch in Kuwait City in an exquisite event that brought together watch and cigar lovers
After celebrating the 50th anniversary of Cohiba with the creation of three commemorative limited editions, Manufacture Zenith pays tribute to this Cuban legend with the production of El Primero “Legend of Cohiba”, which embodies the excellence, precision and expertise that unite Zenith and Cohiba.
Shahzad Gidwani, GM of Behbehani Group, and George Bechara, Regional Brand Director of Zenith, hosted the guests, who were able to enjoy the pleasure of good cigars while viewing the beautiful new El Primero Cohiba 36’000 VpH in rose gold.
Housing the iconic El Primero movement, the Legend of Cohiba sets aside its legendary tricolour light grey, anthracite and blue outfit to adopt the colours of the ‘Flagship of all Habanos ’.
The case-middle of its 42 MM pink gold case is engraved with the year 1966. The small seconds at 9 o’clock reveals the profile of the aboriginal chief Taíno – the emblem of the brand Cohiba. The dial displays the golden nuances of a tobacco leaf and bears the signature Cohiba rings. Emblematic lines cross the dial, vertically accentuating the width of the watch, just like a cigar on which they indicate the diameter.
Complemented by a brown alligator leather strap with orange and yellow-tinted lining, the watch comes in an exclusive wooden presentation box featuring the same colours as the legendary Habanos.
