Accutron, always considered more than just a watch, is an epic, omnipresent component of American popular culture. The revival in 2020 of such an iconic brand is familiar to La Palina cigars, which in 2010 was restarted by the original founder’s grandson, Bill Paley, following his grandfather’s dedication to cigar-making excellence.
Today, La Palina produces highly-rated premium and ultra-premium handmade cigars, offering a meritage of the finest aged tobacco leaves selected and blended by master artisans, symbolic of the originals.
Returning to their earliest days, La Palina and Accutron share countless values as authentic American heritage lifestyle brands with reputations for unsurpassed innovation and quality. With so much in common, the two brands launched the 222-piece limited edition Spaceview 2020 x La Palina Luxury Set featuring a timepiece and humidor, following a long-standing tradition of cigar-inspired wristwatches dating all the way back to 1932.
Recreating the stunning visual impact of the original open dial design with the exact same signature green accents, the Accutron Spaceview 2020 x La Palina timepiece boasts a brown open-work dial with signature Accutron green accents and brown outer ring, light green super luminous markers, hour and minute hands and warm yellow second hand and is finished on a matching genuine brown alligator strap. This luxury set includes a custom-designed humidor, 100% handmade by master artisans in the Nicaraguan region of Estelí, and ten cigars. Selected by La Palina’s rare wood specialists and chosen for its exceptional figure and grain, all of the cedar was sustainably harvested from forests in Nueva Segovia, then slowly aged for ten years, giving the wood ample time to set. Each humidor holds a minimum of 50 cigars and includes an independent climate top with La Palina’s “ultimate perfect” seal to maintain ideal humidity.
