ESKA | by CUERVO Y SOBRINOS Stardust Dial Automatic 1950s The watch brand “ESKA” is a phonetic abbreviation (of the initials) of the founder Silvan Kocher:  S_ilvan & K_ocher = ’ES” & “KA” | ESKA. This ESKA from the 1950s is an original from Cuba, which was traded by Cuervo y Sobrinos at the time - the dial is one of the rarest examples that is signed twice (ESKA & Cuervo y Sobrinos); an absolute collector's treasure in fantastic condition. The case is still unpolished & the inside caseback of this 100% original watch is as well double signed by ESKA & Cuervo y Sobrinos on the outside and bears the correct and original stamp “S. Kocher & Co.” on the inside. __ ESKA | The founder of the watch brand ESKA, Mr. Silvan Kocher Senior, was born in 1867. His family came from the village of Selzach in German-speaking Switzerland. In earlier centuries, members of the Kocher family worked in agriculture as fishermen and also as farmers. __ Cuervo y Sobrinos | Founded in 1882, the  company and brand can look back on an amazing history marked by many important milestones. Ramón Fernández Cuervo, an immigrant from northern Spain (Asturias), opened his first jewelry store on Calle de la Amistad in Havana in 1862.  This store was a precursor to Cuervo y Sobrinos which was founded in 1882. Baldomero, Don Teodomiro, Don Jose Maria, Don Armando, Don Placido and Don Lisardo, the so-called " newphews", joined Ramón Fernández Cuervo in the new business. At that time, the company's store was located at Calle del Teniente Rey 13. The business flourished and the growing business required more space, so in 1897 the store moved to Calle de la Muralla 37. In 1907 Ramón Fernández y Cuervo died. His nephew, D. Armando Fernández y Río, took over the management of the store. In 1917, Cuervo y Sobrinos opened a new store on Calle San Rafael y Aguila. In 1920, Cuervo y Sobrinos decided to expand its business and opened European branches, in Pforzheim (Germany) for the purchase and selection of exclusive gems and in Paris on Rue Mezlay (France) for the manufacture and trade of jewelry. In the heart of Switzerland at La Chaux-de-Fonds, the company established its own manufactory and set up its headquarters. In the 1940s, the company's esteemed reputation spread and its brand name became one of the most recognized in the Americas. __ This masterpiece is serviced from our master watchmakers in year 2025 and covered with our 1-year guarantee for you.
