First of all it is impossible for somebody to tell by the band if a cigar is legitimate. If the band is wrong it is a dead give away, but I have seen some real bands on fake cigars.

Second, since October 1960 boxes are stamped "Hecho en Cuba" not Made in Cuba. If you have seen or own a box of Cohibas with this stamp they are fake.
Only sometimes, Moe. I have seen some horrible looking bands on authentic Cuban cigars. Conclusions cannot always be drawn from the band alone.
