BH2876 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 These are siglo 1's, the bands don't look right, has anyone ever recieved Siglo's where the white squares on the bands look like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickmccarey Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Did you get these from a trusted vendor/seller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soutso Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Have you checked the code on the Cuban Govt. seal that is on the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusguy Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 The wrappers are gnarly as well. I tend towards fakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro2486 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Can we see the box? We can tell fakes by the Perspex instead of glass top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gerlinan Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 If you will, in what country did you buy them? You tell have to revel the vendor but the country may help narrow it down. Sadly, they look like fakes to me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 The wrappers are gnarly as well. I tend towards fakes.That's just the picture angle. Go look at Rye's instagram. Many wrappers look like that under different light. Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Bands could be 'Cuba being 'Cuba'. Cropped too soon or some imperfect bands. What's HSA going to do? Throw out imperfect material? Caps do look okay, though. Take a picture of the feet if you can? Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Cuba isn't always great with quality control but even looking passed the band, those cigars look miserable. Veiny, bulky, and from what I can see the feet were not finished properly or have a rougher appearance as well. As far as the band goes, it looks very suspect to me. But my conclusion rests on the way the cigar themselves look at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 May have to possibly agree with you there, too. Needed to advocate for the good side. Perhaps I didn't complement the build for a reason Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikek Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I have A sig.1 in my hand and it looks alot more polished. Before you smoke one do an autopsy on one and see what that looks like.You dont want to get sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmac77 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Those look like Quinteros with a bad Cohiba band to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisco Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 ^^ My thoughts exactly. Very Quintero looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 For every legitimate Cohiba our there, there is probably four fake ones. When not certain of the dealer/provenance, a Cohiba is statistically very likely to be fake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
