Founded in 2005 by Sassoun Sirmakes and Antonio Terranova, Cvstos has quickly established itself as a prominent player in the luxury watchmaking industry. Sirmakes, born into a family with a rich watchmaking heritage, and Terranova, with extensive experience in designing for top watch brands, combined their visions to create Cvstos, named after the Latin word for "guardian." Based in Geneva's historical Saint Gervais quarter, Cvstos is known for its fusion of traditional Swiss watchmaking with modern materials and techniques, appealing to a younger, style-conscious audience. Their collections, including the Challenge, Evosquare, RE-BELLE, and Jet-liner, cater to diverse tastes, with the Challenge Sea Liner being a standout as their best-selling model. Despite being a relatively new brand, Cvstos's commitment to unique design and technical excellence has earned it a distinguished place among luxury watch connoisseurs.
