Never heard of these and there's no mention on Trevor's site. I've prayed the description in case the auction gets cancelled

You are bidding on an extremely rare*cigar box by*San Cristobal De La Habana for their*Carlos III*cigars,*hand made in Havana Cuba, and retailed exclusively through La Casa Del Habano. San Cristobal de la Habana was officially launched in*Havana on November 20, 1999. It was named after the original name of Havana which dates back to the 16th century. Before the*Revolution, a brand by the name of San Cristobal de la Habana existed, and it was produced until the Revolution. However, this new brand is completely unrelated and not a resurrection of the old brand. The brand initially launched with 4 cigars (El Morro, El Principe, La Fuerza, and La Punta). In 2004, to celebrate the brand's fifth anniversary, 3 additional cigars were produced for the V Anniversary Humidor and eventually released for public sale. These new cigars, the Officios, Mercaderes and Muralla, also feature an additional "La Casa del Habano" band as these cigars were only available at La Casa del Habano retailers.
I have tried to find more information about the Carlos III cigars, but they are so rare that very few tobacconists outside of Cuba have ever even seen them, therefore information is very difficult to find.*
This box features the San Cristobal De La Habana logo in gold*on the top of the traditional red color box. There is also another San Cristobal logo in gold color print*on a label on the inside of the lid. The box is in good structural condition with just a few nicks and scratches, all of which are pictured in detail. The cuban tobacco tax stamp and the La Casa Del Habano*corner band*are both intact. The corner bands are coming loose a little bit on the sides. The upper portion of the metal clasp is missing. There is* a piece of paper regarding cigar storage and a cigar band in the box. Both of these were in the box when I aquired it, and*I do not know if they are*related to the box or the cigars that were originally in it.*This box will make a*amazing addition to any collection. Do not let this one go by. It is not likely that you will find another one. It will be shipped fully insured for the final purchase price.
Measurements are 11" x*10 1/4" x 2"
