Robusto Buceador Melges in blue indigo color
To celebrate this event, Cuervo y Sobrinos has created a new version of the Robusto Buceador Melges.  This modern sports watch, inspired by the sea, is equally suitable for aquatic activities as it is for daily wear. The distinctive  Melges 32 boat profile and the Melges logo stand out on a blue indigo dial of the Robusto.
The single piece case, the 2 screw crowns and the screwed-on case back guarantee that this watch is perfectly water-resistant up to 200 meters. Immersion time is displayed thanks to an internal rotating bezel.  Orange markers are easy to read.  The rubber strap is hand-made; the contrast stitching and the inside of the rubber strap are also orange.
